Polls don't work by email

I was referring to the voting feature, but somehow Discourse stripped the quoted text from my (e-mail) reply.

What does the poll look like by email?

Like this:

[poll type=regular results=always public=true chartType=bar close=2023-05-03T04:00:00.000Z]
  • 100
  • 1000
  • 2000
  • 10000
  • 20000
  • more?
[/ >[poll ]

(but of course I am replying via email, hopefully quoting it shows the
right thing).

Okay, so, it’s just the raw bbcode-like markup.

I understand not wanting to implement complex response-parsing-by-email, but it does seem like there could be some interpretation. (Just like with the bbcode-like quoting.)

I’m going to RFE that, and maybe also generating a notification showing the final results when the poll closes.
