FAQ
What's a "public" inbox?
Public inboxes are the ones that are visible to everyone else on the web. Of course, if the user is not participant of the inbox he will not be able to see your email and emails of other participants. If the inbox is not public (checkbox unchecked) only participants are able to view it. The owner of the inbox may switch public/private option at any time in inbox settings.
How is it different from Google Groups?
First, you certainly don't need a group to start a discussion. Second, you don't need to sign up. And, finally, we have some cool options, like threaded comments and private inboxes, to fit anyone's tastes and needs.
How is it different from Google Wave?
ReSubj uses existing wide-spread protocols and provides two interfaces: email and web, which is a great way to hold a conversation between people, who are convenient within different interfaces.
Is posting by email secure?
Yes it is. If you hit “Reply” button in your email-client you'll see an obscure address in “To” field. This address contains your password and comment or inbox key. It is relatively hard to guess them unless you expose them to someone intentionally.
I don't want to receive email notifications for any new comment in the inbox.
No problem. Go to your profile (link at the top right corner of the page) and uncheck the check box that says “Send each new comment to my email”.
I accidentally logged out, how do I log in again?
Just click one of the links we've sent you with your email notifications.
Can I use HTML?
We currently restricted using all of HTML tags except <a> and <img>. Though, you can still add a picture or a link by just pasting in the url, you don't have to use a tag for this. Anyway, other tags are restricted for everyone's convenience: some people read and reply to ReSubj using just email, so they would only prefer to see plaintext.
Should I remove quotes or my name and phone number at the bottom of my email reply?
No, ReSubj will remove it for you as soon as it receives your message. Currently, it removes all strings starting with > and everything that goes after the line with -- characters. We're working on the parser though to accept more different styles of quoting and other unrelated information usually sent with the message.
