Make email chain look like normal email

We often have email chains between staff in our company (who are 'staff' and light agents), and people outside the company (end users), cc'd in to the chain.

When our Zendesk agents reply, it copies the entire previous chain in with their reply.

This results in us having a ridiculously long email chain, and sometimes its really hard to go back to what the original email was about. 

Ideally we would like the email to read like it does on any other normal email, like so:

Person A Comment

Person B Comment

Person A Comment

Is this possible?

Rosie,

Pretty simple actually

In your triggers you need to swap a placeholder. 

FROM: {{ticket.comments_formatted}}

TO: {{ticket.latest_comment_formatted}}

Save and test!

Hope this helps,

McCabe

Hey Rosie!

One of our Support Advocates wrote a Tip of the Week about this very thing! You can find it here: Setting up an unformatted email template.

Hope that helps!
