Allow to send channel message with event "New message in inbox
Following this document https://help.hostfully.com/en/articles/5412369-hostfully-unified-inbox#h_8c9770375c
The event New message in inbox is working for action sending email only.
As a host, I want this event works for channel message as well.
It helps to cover the scenario:
When the guest sent me a message, I want to be able to trigger to fire a automatically acknowledge message to guest. (Ex: I have received your message and will get back soon etc) when you received their message.
=> It helps to save the responding time in my account. (Airbnb has reviewed the host responding time)

One of the main Reasons for buying Hostfully in the first place is so that I can automate this! I am so shocked!
I am a busy person, I may receive a request whilst in a long video meeting at work, and I can lose my Superhost status if I do not keep my average reply time in less than an hour!
Also the guest may start sending enqires to other places if I dont ackledge the message
And Airbnb rates you higher the faster you reply to the inbox, so I may be loosing business if I dont reply faster than my competiton, which by the way is a lot, I have a lot of competition.
If you can not resolve this please let me know at your earliest convenience, many thanks!
