Folders
Here you can only edit the folders Junk, Sent mail, Deleted mail and the folders you created yourself. You can edit the name, the parent folder and the display mode.
With the + icon you can create and set up additional folders.
Identities
In this section you can create individual identities (aliases) for your mailboxes. New identities are added with the plus + button.
Editing or adding takes place in the same window, and the options are identical.
In each identity you can also set a signature that is used when writing new messages or replying to an email you have already received.
- Display name - The name shown on the email (required)
- Email - the email address of the given identity
- Organization - Filling this in is not required
- Reply-To - The address that should be pre-filled for replies to a sent email
- Bcc - The email address where blind copies of sent emails are sent
- Set default - The option to set the default identity
Signature
You can create a signature that is used when writing new messages and replying to received ones. You can also create HTML signatures here.
Note that the Name field is required, so if you are filling in a signature, for example, do not forget to fill in the Name as well.
Setting up the right signature is covered in detail in a whole article called Setting up an automatic email signature.
Contacts
After logging in to the RoundCube web interface, you will find the Address Book link in the top right. It opens the basic address book menu
- Contacts can be exported to or imported from a vCard file
- Write an email to a found or selected contact
- Advanced search by the criteria you enter
You can also sort individual contacts into groups. New groups are created with the + icon
Adding, deleting and removing individual contacts is done in the second column
