            I, myself, would probably want to send a "thank you" email in return and mention that I'm working on the revision. The editor then knows, at least, that you got the revision request and that it didn't wind up in junk-mail limbo.



            Some might say that it is a mistake to "bother" a busy editor. But, if the volume of work of an editor is so large as to make this a problem, then I think that editor probably has an assistant who filters the mail in any case.



            It might be useful information to them or not, but the thank you part seems to me to be appropriate. If a reply were essential, the mail from the EiC would have requested it, however.
