Sender identities allow you to specify your display name and e-mail address which the recipient will see in their mail program. Your actual e-mail address will always be visible (included) in the full headers of the message delivered to the recipient.

When composing a message in both webmail clients, you can select an identity via the From drop-down menu.

Note: Identities are not synchronized between Roundcube and Webmail Classic.

The process of adding and managing identities will vary depending on your webmail client of choice:

Roundcube

You can view and manage your identities in Roundcube by following these steps:

  1. Open the Settings task from the main menu.
  2. Select the Identities setting.

This will present you with a list of all identities for your mailbox. For each identity, you can specify a custom display name, e-mail, organization, signature, and Reply-to and Bcc headers that will be used when composing messages.

To add a new identity, click on the + Create button from top-right corner of the Identities section in the Elastic theme (or the + button from the Identities list footer in the Larry theme), enter the identity settings, and click on the Save button.

If you want to edit a specific identity, select it from the identities list, update the identity settings, and click on the Save button.

To set an identity as default for your mailbox, use the Set default checkbox/toggle button when editing the identity.

To delete a specific identity, select it from the identities list, click on the Delete button from top-right corner of the Identities section in the Elastic theme (or the trash icon from the Identities list footer in the Larry theme), and click on the Delete button from the pop-up confirmation window.

More information about identities is available in the Sender Identities article from Roundcube's official documentation.

Webmail Classic

To manage your sender identities in Webmail Classic, you should:

  1. Click on the Options tab from the main menu.
  2. Go to Mail Identities.

There you will find a list of all identities added for your mailbox through Webmail Classic.

You can add a new identity through the Add a new identity section by specifying a display name and e-mail address, and clicking on the Add button.

To edit an identity, click on the edit link next to the specific identity from the identities list, change the display name and/or e-mail address from the Edit an identity section, and click on the Edit button.

Setting an identity as default is achieved by clicking on the set as default link next to the specific identity from the identities list.

If you wish to delete an identity, click on the delete link next to the identity.
