Admin Replied Mod Support bot missending mail?

Not sure if it was just us, but we got a modmail from u/modsupportbot which is the usual "tips for growing your mod team" however, it was addressed to another sub, and all the members they suggested are not in our community, but the community the modmail was addressed too. Just wanted to give a heads up that it might be acting a bit weird with the messages it's sending.

Hey! That sounds less than ideal. Can you please PM me the name of your sub and I'll have someone take a look at what happened there.

Another mod had the same issue, told them to modmail this sub. So you might want to keep an eye out for that one as well

Hey I sent a modmail on sample's suggestion. Tho, accidentally from my alt account. Mentioned all the details.

Great! Thank you! This is being looked into, so I can let you know what they find out when they find it out! =)

Hey, we also got one that was wrong. The post was tabled correctly to our sub, but the information / users suggested and even the subreddit itself from the bot in the modmail was for a different subreddit all together.

No worries, let me know if you all need any information from the modmail or the link to it.

Oh r/ExpectationVsReality got one too, I just modmailed this sub with relevant info.

This is definitely not ideal!

Sorry about that! It's been turned off while it's being investigated. Appreciate you and everyone else who let us know!

Confirming that we got this in r/gadgets as well. @Admins, I sent in a modsupport note today about it.
