When someone gets a scan from the machine, the "SMTP Auth. E-mail Address" winds up being the reply to address. Is there a way to make the reply address the users' actual email address, or is that a authentication can of worms?

It's easiest to do this from the web interface of the machine. In the address book, you set the users as both recipients and senders in terms of email. The only issue is that you then have to make sure that the users update their email password every time they change it. Generally, it's best to have a generic email address that the MFP, or multiple MFP's use for scanning, that way there's only one password for either a key-op or IT to manage on the machine(s).
Once you select the destination you're emailing you can press the "Senders Name" below the list of destinations and select the user if it programmed.
Hope this helps
Yes, I know that should be how it works, but ... have you tried replying to a scan? I had never tried until today. When I did (from different test users) the reply address was always the generic scanner email address. Is it not on yours? Maybe something is configured wrong... idk
I tested it again just now. I emailed to an email not registered on my Ricoh applied the senders name with one registered. I received the email on Yahoo and was able to reply back to the senders name and not the device.
Ricoh devices use the email entered at the "Administrator Address" as the FROM when emailing. i have my Ricoh with scannerdonotreply@jkdhhdh.com and its a bogus email non working one.
