Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Responding to a congratulatory note or goodwill message with a thank you or a similar acknowledgement is considered polite and appropriate, similar to saying "you're welcome" when someone thanks you. Providing additional details or suggesting that you don't deserve the praise can come across as insincere or self-deprecating. It is not necessary to extend the conversation unnecessarily or to provide more information than is required.
