Is it possible the message is being replied-to automatically, (e.g. System Reply List, *DFT delivery on *MSGQ)?

Within the iSphere Messages subsystem, the message icon (envelope) has a small "?" indicating the message requires a reply. If the "?" is not present, it means the message has received a reply and the REPLY textbox will therefore not appear within iSERIES MESSAGE window.

(Just tried under as well Win10 - working fine for me.)

I even tried to maximize the dialogue, but I still didn't get the reply textbox. The caption's always there, but the textbox itself is missing.

Works for me under Win 7, even when signed on to a 5250 session with the MSGQ(*BREAK).

Right click the message (with the "?") > select MESSAGE DETAILS and the iSERIES MESSAGE window appears. (Alternatively, just double-click the
message.) The REPLY field appears as the last item.

WARNING: I had to enlarge the iSERIES MESSAGE window to see the REPLY field - it may be hidden. (There are no vertical/horizontal scroll bars to suggest more information available.)

NOTE TO TOOLS/400 TEAM: Just a suggestion or two to enhance the iSphere Messages subsystem.
- Change the title in the Message Details window from iSERIES MESSAGE to IBM i MESSAGE
- Enable vertical/horizontal scrolling in the Message Details window
- Add an extra item to the subsystem context menu to SEND a message, maybe a front-end to CALL QEZSNDMG? (I know we can prompt SNDMSG and SNDBRKMSG commands within RDi, but a graphical interface similar to the old Access for Windows System i Navigator SEND function would be very handy.)
