Here it goes.
The question is: Will someone targeted by the Detect Thoughts supernatural ability of a doppeganger, feel the magical attack like he would if it was a spell, or not?
By the wording it looks like it wouldn't; but I am not sure if its true, since (su) abilities are magical too.
SRD said:Succeeding on a Saving Throw
A creature that successfully saves against a spell that has no obvious physical effects feels a hostile force or a tingle, but cannot deduce the exact nature of the attack. Likewise, if a creature’s saving throw succeeds against a targeted spell you sense that the spell has failed. You do not sense when creatures succeed on saves against effect and area spells.
SRD said:Detect Thoughts (Su)
A doppelganger can continuously use detect thoughts as the spell (caster level 18th; Will DC 13 negates). It can suppress or resume this ability as a free action. The save DC is Charisma-based.
