Tracking Inbound Email Reply

Hi,

I want to update a field when reply comes to a forwarded email. I am exploring Messaging.InboundEmailHandler for this. Inboundemailhandler inreplyto property gives actual email. Is there any way to get id of reply to email so that I can check if reply to email was forwarded one?

Thanks
Sanjivani

Hi ,

Can you give more details about the problem ? 

I don't think you will get the ID of reply. You can parse the subject for further process.

Yes, my first trial of solution was check subject for Re:FW, but on production, reply does not keep previous email keyword(FW: /RE).

Problem: I want to update field on case when reply to "forwarded" email comes.
Solution I tried: Workflow rule to update the field on case when subject has "Re: FW:". It works on sandbox but on production, reply subject has format "RE:", system takes out previous email prefix "FW". 
So when I received reply to forwarded email in sandbox, I get subject "Re: FW: subject". But when I revieve reply to forwarded email in production, I get subject "Re: subject". Thus I can not parse subject to know the reply is for forwarded email.

Hi ,

You can add OR condition in your formula.

Like subject contains Re:FW or Re :   

Whether it will solve your problem ?

No, Re wont solve problem. The field will get tupdated for any reply. I want to update field only for forwarded email's reply. I am finding solution how can I update subject automatically when forward goes out.
