I have fudforum 2.6.12 set up to send notifications from the forum and receive posts from email. All is working nicely.
Instead of having users who receive notifications click Reply and be taken to the forum page (where they have to remember the user name and password), I'd like to have each email notification include the post-to-forum email address for the forum which sent the email. If body mangling is the way to do this, I'm afraid I'll need a pointer.
It is ok with me if the reply email isn't nicely tucked in as a reply to the previous post.
Thanks! I dig fudforum!

Well, what you need to do is 1st make it so that the sent notifications are HTML (option you can toggle in admin controls). Then you need to embed a simple reply form inside that HTML, so that the post submission can be done directly from the e-mail client.

I could change this somehow, couldn't I?
iemail_frm_bodyemail: To view the topic go to:\n{VAR: goto_url['email']}\n\nTo stop receiving notifications about new topics in this forum, please go here: {VAR: unsub_url['email']}
add
To email the list without logging into the forum, click here: [mailto: (code that gets the forum's send-to email address and puts it here)]
correct?
I guess it is not elegant, since it would have to be tweaked for each template and language.
Oh, and --minor detail-- this bodyemail msg is not actually being sent out on my list, and I don't know why. The subject line is, but the body looks like a chunk of the forum, without the text in the lang file.
Sorry, I'm still learning fudforum's methods.

You are close, what you are seeing are the PLAIN TEXT variants of the notification e-mails being sent. What you want are the HTML variants found inside iemail.tmpl template.
