Reply to a message
You want to ask a question about something Pyn sent you. Where you reply depends on who the message came from, which Pyn shows plainly on every message.
-
Look at the sender of the message: the From line of an email, the name on a Slack direct message, or the app name on a Teams message.
-
If it is a colleague’s name and address, reply as you normally would. Pyn sent the message through that person’s own mailbox or Slack account, so the reply reaches them directly.
-
If it is a company address such as
people@yourcompany.com, reply to it. The People team set that address up as a sender and receives replies there. -
If it is the Pyn app in Slack or Teams, do not reply in that conversation; there is no person behind the app. Use the contact details in the message, or ask your People team.
-
If the message asks you to confirm or answer something, use the button or form in it rather than replying. A reply does not count as acting on the message, so reminders keep coming until you select the button or submit the form; see Acknowledge a message.
What you should see
Section titled “What you should see”A reply to a person or a company address lands in their inbox or Slack like any other message. A button or form, once used, changes the message in Slack to show it was submitted, and no reminder follows.
