We found that email replies were not being piped to OST when a customer replied. It resulted in an error found in the logs:
[01-Jun-2020 20:06:50 UTC] PHP Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required '//osta/php/functions.php' (include_path='./:/home/cpaneluser/mydomain.com/support/include/:/home/cpaneluser/mydomain.com/support/include/pear/') in /home/cpaneluser/mydomain.com/support/main.inc.php on line 68
We the inspected main.inc.php and found your osta code.
We then removed the following from main.inc.php:
// osta
require_once $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . ROOT_PATH . "/osta/php/functions.php";
$custom = get_config() ;
ie_check($custom);
?>
Once we did, piping works just fine. The only difference is that our logo on the back-end now shows your logo and this cannot be changed, but the front-end looks and feels normal.

Actually, I found that this caused another issue. I'll list them as I find them:
- our logo on the back-end now shows your logo and this cannot be changed, but the front-end looks and feels normal.
- Upon opening a ticket, the loading rainbow circle never stops spinning which makes us have to go back to the previous page. However, the ticket is generated and emails are sent with no problems.

- Front-end ticket creating fails. When submitting, the loading circle spins for just a moment, then the entire page is reloads without ever creating a ticket.
Update: I've re-installed the prior version of the OSTA and that fixed all of my problems. I'll stop here until I see a fix or update. Thanks.
Sorry for your trouble, and thank you for taking the time to report this. We'll look into it and have a fix soon.
