Default identity

Your identity is how to will be seen as sender when you send out email messages.

To access it, click on Settings and then Identities.

Identities

You will see your default identity, here the testuser@disroot.org identity. If you click on it, you will have access to some settings.

  • Display name: the full name displayed in the recipients email program when you send out a message. It can be anything you want.

  • Email: Don't change this for your default email. It has to be your username@disroot.org email address. Otherwise message sending might fail because of an invalid sender address.

  • Organization: Optionnal, some email programs display the organization field when receiving messages from you with this filled out.

  • Reply-to: Optionnal, enter an email address that differs from the identitys Email address here in order to force recipients to send answers to that address instead of the sender email address.

  • Bcc: Optionnal, specify an email address here that will receive blind copies of every message you send with this identity.

  • Set default: check this box to make the current identity the default selection when writing new messages. You can still chose another sender identity while composing a message, though.

You can also add a signature that will be inserted to the bottom of the message you write. Visit Settings > Preferences > Composing Messages to configure when and how signatures are inserted.

Add other identities / aliases

You can set up an alias to your email. By default, all Disrooters have two email aliases: username@disr.it and username@getgoogleoff.me. But you can add more aliases if you want. Check here to know more about how to have aliases.

  2. Email: set the alias you want, so for example username@disr.it or username@getgoogleoff.me or what ever valide alias yuu donated for.
