- I replied to it via RBE

Maybe something funky is happening with RBE topic lookups, in combination with our custom subject line?
Let me know if you need full emails.

Ugh, the problem is the bp-rbe-new-topic plugin was overriding the Reply-To email address on all group pages, when it should only override the RBE email address during the "Post New Topic via Email" block on a group's "Forum" page. Because bbPress forum replies post to /forum/topic/XXX (in bp-default themes!), if someone was posting a regular reply on the web, this is where this problem came up.
Fixed in https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/cac/commit/851a380d7a91a13050f6fe0ade2f1b030d79ecf8 and deployed as a hotfix on production.
