bbPress notification emails not getting sent through Mandrill

Wordpress: 4.5.2
bbPress: 2.5.9

Hi there,
I use the wpMandrill plugin (v1.33) to send email through Mandrill.
It works fine for Buddypress emails, and other standard WordPress emails.
However bbPress emails don’t get sent through Mandrill.

What is bbPress doing differently about how it sends email notifications?
How can I get bbPress to correctly send through Mandrill?

I’ve read a few previous topics, and they seem to indicate it’s something to do with how bbPress handles BCC, and no reply.

thx
Vanessa

After some more digging, I see that Mandrill is rejecting emails sent to noreply@<domain>
So perhaps this rejection is causing WordPress to send the email instead?

I ended up getting this working by ditching wpMandrill plugin and using Easy WP SMPT plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/easy-wp-smtp/
