Doubts inbox + pre-sale enquiries
One inbox for student support questions and prospective-buyer enquiries. WhatsApp, email, in-app — same place.
Two doorways, one inbox
- Inside a lesson: 'Got a question? Ask the teacher' opens a dialog scoped to that lesson.
- Public course pages: 'Email the teacher' prominent CTA opens a popup that captures name + email + WhatsApp + message.
Rate limits
3 questions per browser per 24h per course. The dialog shows the countdown when you hit the cap. This is a UX guardrail, not a security boundary.
Notifications fired
- In-app notification to the workspace owner / admins.
- Email to the workspace owner with replyTo set to the asker.
- WhatsApp via the existing notification dispatcher (stubbed until a real provider is wired).
- Acknowledgement email to the asker — they know it actually went somewhere.
Where it lands
Both types of doubt show up in /dashboard/doubts. Guest enquiries get a 'Pre-sale' badge so support work + sales leads stay distinguishable. Click into a guest doubt for the reply thread + a 'Reply by email' shortcut.
Replies to guest doubts auto-email the captured address. The asker can reply directly to the email to continue the conversation.
