    In this case, if I don't reply, maybe you'll believe I didn't read
    your mail.

Not this time, because I asked you please to reply when you have the
answer.  I explicitly said I did not expect a reply until then.

    If you don't expect a reply immediately, I think the system should not
    send a reminder after N weeks.

The system sends me a reminder if, N weeks later, no reply has arrived.

                                   It should only send a reminder when you
    expect a progress status - and a reply.

I don't understand.  Could you say that in different words?
