Hi there, It looks like you are expecting to be able to use this version of Mautic with a live instance of Mautic? You should not be using 4.0 alpha in production, ever. This is only for developers to test the progress with Mautic 4. > **[Release Mautic Community 4.0.0-alpha1 · mautic/mautic](https://github.com/mautic/mautic/releases/tag/4.0.0-alpha1)** > > //github.com/mautic/mautic/releases/tag/4.0.0-alpha1 Please reinstall using Mautic 3 - from [mautic.org/download](http://mautic.org/download) - until Mautic 4.0 is released in May. If you wish to help with testing Mautic 4 please join #mautic-4 on Slack ([https://mautic.org/slack](https://mautic.org/slack)) but not in a production environment 🙂 ---

No problem at all! You will always get the latest packaged version at [mautic.org/download](http://mautic.org/download). If you prefer to get the code from GitHub you can either grab the latest stable release : [https://github.com/mautic/mautic/releases/latest](https://github.com/mautic/mautic/releases/latest) (if you browse the main releases page, be sure to look for the release that does not say ‘pre-release’) or you can pull the code from Github and check out the tag for the latest release. ---

Hurrah! Did you change any settings or just set it up exactly the same? Will raise it as something to test if you set it all up the same, as it could be a bug we need to address! ---

Yes, i used exact same setting as before, and one thing i didn’t know was that it took about 5~10 min to get it triggered after a reply, which i really like it, and im not really sure if i had waited that long before the reinstall, so i can’t really say it for sure but im sure i have done the same thing as i did before and after reinstall, After all habbits don’t change that easily, so im sure i had waited more than 5 min while doing something else, just like i happend to found out that it worked after reinstall, so yes i did the same thing, 🙂 ---

Hello For my Contact Replies are working if I give ‘INBOX’ as my folder to check. It works perfectly and triggers the email as soon as Inbox receives the email. Moment I change the folder to custom folder, it is not working. Nothing gets triggered. No errors. Some one told me its a bug…thinking how such a important functionality can be a bug - is that so ? thanks a
