I recieved an email from a program stating the they recieved my application, will review it, thanked me for my interest in the program and will strat the invitaitons procress after Oct 1st.

It looks like an automated email message. I was wondering if I have to reply to the program coordinator who sent the email. what should I write back?

stuff like this cracks me up.
 
kaokao - Joking aside, I did not feel myself compelled to respond to those automated type emails. Just save all that worried energy for when you get interview invites, when politeness and a prompt response are in fact important.
 
most of those automated emails state clearely that the applicant should NOT reply to the emails.

Any message that a program sends to you via ERAS (acknowledging that your application has been received, as well as interview invites) will tell you NOT to respond because it's not sent directly from the program's email address:
PLEASE DO NOT REPLY TO THIS MESSAGE.
This is an ERAS message which is being sent to you on behalf of [email protected].
Please send all replies to the sender's e-mail address, [email protected].
The 'acknowledgement of us receiving your application' emails I've gotten have encouraged me to contact them with questions, but also state that they'll notify me with a decision once the prelim review is complete. I wouldn't bother them to ask about the status of review, but if you have other legit questions then go for it.
 
same here... hahahaha

I don't think its so funny.i only wanted to double check to see what others would do when they get these messages. when I saw the program coordinator's email address at the bottom of the page,i doubted if there is anything that we should write bk to them .I appreciate others who responded to my question appropriately..thanks
