Formatting in your Slack reply now shows in the email

By Jake Marsh · · New feature

Setup steps read better as a list, and a link reads better as a few words than as a long address. Until now RelayMail sent replies as plain text, so the formatting you wrote in Slack was taken out.

Since November 13, a reply from the Slack thread keeps its formatting in the email:

  • *Bold*, _italics_ and ~strikethrough~
  • Links, shown as the words you linked
  • Bullet and numbered lists
  • Quotes and code

Mail apps that only show plain text get the same reply as plain text, as before. Your email signature is added under the reply in both versions.

RelayMail puts your support email in a Slack channel and sends thread replies back as email. Start the 14-day trial.
