For a while I had the option. Sometimes I'd have to click off the message and then back onto it again for the "Reply" option to appear.
Now it's gone entirely and I can't get it to return.
This is like....a standard feature in any modern email system? Is ESO not considered modern?

ESO is modern, but it's not an EMAIL system, it's an online game.
If ZOS listened to all requests, they'd have to make :
- The crown store like Amazon
- Character creation and dye system like Photoshop
- EMail system like Thunderbird
- Guild stores like Access
- Housing system like AutoCAD
- Chat system like Skype
- etc etc

This all wouldn't be bad tho. I think some listings have much better examples in place of those you selected but....it's not bad.
A reply button is not necessarily modern, it is a requirement of the most basic, primitive communications methods.This is like....a standard feature in any modern email system? Is ESO not considered modern?
I can see why Reply would not be allowed, as it would turn the email system into a Chat System, and they already have a chat system. It could very well slow the whole mail system down, more than it is now. Also, people would howl at the moon as they had to rezone to have a "conversation" with someone.
However, a One Time Reply would be so helpful and would not load down the system with chatty emails flying all over the place.

Did you have an old version of the MailR addon? That allows replying to and forwarding of mail.
The developers of MailR discovered that the entire mail backend got rewritten with One Tamriel - even though from a user's perspective, nothing has changed - so it's very possible that ZOS are planning to add new features to the mail system Soon (TM).
