What it does ------------ [](#what-it-does) 1. **Unique Reply-To per notification.** When Flarum sends an email notification (new post, mention, etc.) this extension injects a header like: ``` Reply-To: reply+ab12cd34ef@reply.example.com ``` The token encodes the recipient user + the discussion and is HMAC-signed against a server secret, so it cannot be forged. 2. **Inbound email processing.** When the user replies to that email, your MTA (or an inbound provider like Mailgun/Postmark) forwards the message to: - `POST /api/mail-reply/inbound` (HTTP webhook, with a shared secret), or - `php flarum mail-reply:process` (STDIN pipe, for Postfix/Exim aliases). The extension verifies the token, strips quoted history and signatures, and creates a `CommentPost` on behalf of the original recipient. Configure --------- [](#configure) Set these via the admin settings UI (Flarum settings repo keys): KeyDescription`ramon-mail-reply.domain`Domain for the synthetic Reply-To (e.g. `reply.example.com`). Leave blank to disable.`ramon-mail-reply.webhook_secret`Shared secret required in the `X-Mail-Reply-Token` header on inbound webhook calls.`ramon-mail-reply.secret`(Optional) HMAC key for tokens. Falls back to `APP_KEY`.`ramon-mail-reply.token_ttl_days`Token lifetime in days (default: 30).`ramon-mail-reply.strip_signatures``true` to run the full reply parser (default), `false` to only trim quoted lines.Mailgun / Postmark / SendGrid route ----------------------------------- [](#mailgun--postmark--sendgrid-route) Point the inbound route at: ``` POST https://yourforum.tld/api/mail-reply/inbound Header: X-Mail-Reply-Token: ``` Postfix alias (STDIN pipe) -------------------------- [](#postfix-alias-stdin-pipe) ``` reply: "|/usr/bin/php /var/www/flarum/flarum mail-reply:process" ``` Install ------- [](#install) ``` composer require ramon/mail-reply php flarum migrate php flarum extension:enable ramon-mail-reply ``` Admin panel ----------- [](#admin-panel) The extension ships with a small admin settings panel (domain, webhook secret, HMAC key, token TTL, signature stripping, "via email" badge toggle). Forum badge ----------- [](#forum-badge) Posts created from an inbound email reply are flagged (`posts.via_mail_reply`) and rendered with a small "via email" badge next to the post author. The badge can be turned off from the admin settings page (`Show "via email" badge on replies`). Build ----- [](#build) ``` cd js npm install npm run build ``` Outputs `js/dist/admin.js` and `js/dist/forum.js`; both are loaded automatically by `extend.php`. ### Health Score 38 — LowBetter than 83% of packages Maintenance86 Actively maintained with recent releases Popularity13 Limited adoption so far Community6 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity38 Early-stage or recently created project Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 100% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
