When replying to a tender email thread how do I make it private? I don't see how to make it private and some of my staff have accidentally responded on email and then it goes out to the customer, which caused confusion. I know how to do it through the app, but I was just wondering if I could do it with some kind of thing like #private in the email message.

Thanks, Dan

    Do you mean an internal reply? We don't actually allow internal replies
    from email for this reason, so that you don't accidentally forget to do it.

    Ok. Yes I mean doing an internal reply through the email. If it is not
    supported then I will tell my staff to only use the tender interface for
    internal replies and email for public replies. I think it would be nice if
    I could do something like #private for internal replies. But if it is not
    supported then I guess it is not supported.

    Thanks.

    We didn't implement it because we thought it would be confusing and
    potentially people would do things like #priavte or #pirvate and then get
    upset that their replies would be visible to the customer.

    So we disabled it to remove any form of confusion.

    Courtenay,

    OK. Well we suffered from it anyway. I am going to correct my staff so that
    it doesn't happen again.

    Thanks, You can close it now.
