The fix here is to create a reply address for each sender to a relay address … so:

This is a bit more complicated than described by @groovecoder, if you want to protect the privacy of the user replying to the e-mail. The real user's address might be revealed in some headers of the message, mainly Also, to avoid the risk of being an open relay, you might consider creating a unique |
I just checked, 33mail uses different Reply-to addresses for messages received from the same sender. So there must be some rationale behind it. |
That will somehow cause spam, and then Mozilla will be eligible to become an email provider ... |
One thing that would be important here is to at least attempt to filter out identifying information from the body and headers of the email that is quoted / responded to. E.g., we don't want the real email address to appear when replying-all to our own emails ("On Jan 1st, 2021 real@email.com wrote:"). |
This feature needs to include the ability to initiate an email conversation from a relay address:
So far, Firefox Relay only supports step 4, which only works when you give the third-party the relay email address out-of-band and they initiate the conversation.

@githubacc02442 Thank you for the feedback! We'll be sharing out more details on the Replies feature very shortly and hope that you will enjoy the new experience! The additional feedback around attachment size and subscriptions, we hear you and are listening to your feedback on how to improve the experience, so please keep it coming. Please stay tuned as I think we'll have some exciting information coming soon. |
Hi, is there an update on this feature? |
Apologies @rafalkrupinski, indeed replying is now available to Premium users. See https://relay.firefox.com/premium/ |
Thank you @Vinnl , I was wondering if the ability to initiate conversations is planned. |
At the current time, I believe it is not, as it avoids the masks being used for abuse (e.g. spam) - it's one argument we can use to keep Relay addresses off of blocklists. Possibly we'll be able to come up with other anti-abuse measures in the future that allow us to enable that functionality. |
I created an alias and sent myself an email from my personal gmail account.
The email redirected to my work account as expected, but I was unable to reply to the email and get the response to my personal gmail address.
@groovecoder said it was a known issue, but I didn't see an issue for it.
