When guests reply to an email Overviu sent them (a booking confirmation, an automated message, a reply from you), their reply lands in your Inbox, not in someone’s personal mailbox. Everyone in the team sees it, with the booking it’s about.

How guests’ emails arrive

  • Every email Overviu sends a guest has a reply address for that booking. When the guest hits reply, the email arrives in the Inbox, filed under the guest and linked to the booking.
  • Your team also has its own inbox address. Owners and admins find it in Settings → Teams, on the team’s page, under Team inbox address. Forward your own mailbox to it, or publish it: emails sent to it arrive in the Inbox too.
  • Attachments come with the email: up to 10 files of up to 10 MB each. Larger or extra files are left out, and the message says so.
The Inbox item in the sidebar shows how many conversations are unread.
