 * Does this plugin work with comments that were submitted through WP REST API? 
   I have all the auto-subscribe features enabled. Submitting comments through WP
   REST API doesn’t seem to ever add a subscriber and no emails are generated when
   replying to comments from the admin panel. Is there any documentation on functions
   or hooks so that a subscription can be created when a comment is made through
   WP REST API?

 * [@mgozdiskowski](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mgozdiskowski/) Thanks for
   the report. I was not aware of any issues with comments submitted via the REST
   API, but I’ve gone ahead and opened a bug report so that we can investigate: 
   [https://github.com/websharks/comment-mail/issues/321](https://github.com/websharks/comment-mail/issues/321)
 * Are you using another application to post comments via the REST API, or is this
   something custom that you’re using? (I’m asking so that we can reproduce the 
   issue on our end; knowing what you’re using will help us with testing.)

 * It is through a mobile app that uses the API. Just a basic call to create a comment
   that passes the bare minimum required fields of author_name, author_email, and
   content. Most of the comments are not from registered users, but I wasn’t seeing
   anything generated when replying to registered users either. The comments are
   also on a custom post type and I left “Enabled for Post Types” blank to enable
   for all.

 * [@mgozdiskowski](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mgozdiskowski/) Thank you
   very much for the additional details. We’ll work on getting this tested and will
   update [the GitHub issue](https://github.com/websharks/comment-mail/issues/321)
   and we’ll post an update here too.
