Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/anonaddy/anonaddy/issues/620

I'm working through an issue, and I thought it was related to me using an alias name for receiving initially. Alias forwards were being sent to name+addyio@domain and as expected that was not working, as my replies would come from name@domain which was not a registered email at the time.

I have adjusted my account and default email address to name@domain. It has worked for replies to other aliases and even to some aliases under my custom domain, but not to a select few. Could this just be a timing issue, and I need to wait for this change to replicate between servers? Or maybe I should change my default email address to another address?

This continues to be very strange. I made a new alias bob@domain.com, and it works fine receiving and responding from the default email. I did a forget on the existing problem alias, and re-created it, leaving the default recipient address in place. Sent a test, tried to respond, came right back to me.

I'm baffled.

Please send me an email with details of your domain and the actual alias "bob@domain.com".

Logs inspected by Will, and found that mail provider may be stripping out something. However it is still only for two specific aliases. Very strange. Maybe someone else will find this helpful one day.

I did try switching to a different mail account with outlook.com, but was still doing it. Used a gmail account for these two aliases and it was OK. PITA, but gotta do what you gotta do.
