Well, reflection on, without the underscore, to be exact. Unless I've missed out on a

Furthermore you need the keyword target in the photon block of the reflective object

bounce off of. At least in my knowledge that is the case.
The HTML (or other form) help file for MegaPOV is a great resource anyhow.
