# Reply to email

Wonderly lets you respond to messages from your connected email accounts so you can manage client communication without leaving the platform. You can reply using your default signature, customize formatting, and add recipients or attachments as needed.

**When to use:** You received an email and want to respond directly from Wonderly.

1. Click **Inbox** in the main sidebar.
2. Open **My Inbox** in the secondary sidebar.
3. Select the email conversation you want to reply to.
4. Click **Reply** and type your message.
5. Click the **From** dropdown to select which connected email address to send from.
6. Click **Cc/Bcc** to add additional recipients if needed.
7. Click **Subject** to customize the subject line if needed.
8. Use the formatting toolbar to style your message.

12. Click **Send** to deliver your reply.

2. Open **My Inbox** in the secondary sidebar.

**FAQ**

**My reply failed to send. What should I do?** Check your internet connection and try clicking **Send** again. If it still fails, go to **Settings → Inbox** and confirm your email account is still connected. A disconnected account can block outgoing messages.

**The wrong email address is showing in the From field. How do I fix it?** Click the **From** dropdown before sending and select the correct connected email address. Wonderly defaults to your most recently used address, so you may need to switch manually if you have more than one account connected.

**I sent a reply but my customer says they never received it. What happened?** Ask your customer to check their spam or junk folder first. If the email is not there, go to **Settings → Inbox** and verify your account connection is active. A lapsed connection can cause sent messages to fail silently.

**I accidentally sent a reply. Can I undo it?** Once a reply is sent, it cannot be recalled. Double-check your message, recipient, and From address before clicking **Send**.

**My signature is not showing up on replies. Why?** Click the **pen icon** at the bottom of your reply to check if a signature is saved. If you previously used **Just this email** when saving, that signature only applied to a single reply. Click **Update Signature** to set a default that applies to all future replies.
