Without any other feasible option would this generic address system be allowed?I wouldn't be happy with that as it prevents private replies to theauthor and would make it easy to send what was intended as a privatereply to the public forums by mistake.Isn't that a secondary use case, though? It would be easy to solve thisby providing a URL to the post in the forum that you can click; assumingthe forum interface gives you the option to reply privately.
That would pretty much make it impossible to use offline.
That would be annoying, but I guess survivable. But how would that
work for a user that hasn't signed up for the forum? How does it
verify the sender?
