thanks, too easy to recognise 
I’m now on Version 3.2.6a and tried again what I described in my top post. I can’t see any differnence. I still can not store my email.
I press ‘OK’ button inside IMAP, then store again on top right ‘disc’ button. Next I switch to email, then back to settings to verify what’s inside IMAP. Still the default email (= account name) appears.
On my side I can give whatever I want as email-adress, all is stored as long an @ is included. If I logout and in again, everything is as I stored it before. I also tried an external imap acoount and it works perfectly.
Maybe your problem is related to database access?

I tried a different user and Sogo was working well. The problem only exist for a single email address as far as I can see.
The not working email addr. was maybe used somewhere else during installation. It is a valid one, because it’s my own.
Here what I found in sogo.log when I save a working one (a lot of warnings but it’ works?!):

Sorry, I can’t reproduce. But I have the same messages as you:
Feb 02 16:10:24 sogod [12362]: <0x0x7f76aaa3f660[LDAPSource]> <NSException: 0x7f76abb1b790> NAME:LDAPException REASON:operation bind failed: Invalid credentials (0x31) INFO:{"error_code" = 49; login = "samaccountname=jeckel,dc=ns7,dc=lan"; }
2017-02-02 16:10:24.255 sogod[12362:12362] ERROR(-[NGLdapSearchResultEnumerator nextObject]): does not support result references yet ..
I don’t think that this is the reason for your problem.
My email which could not be set in Sogo was used in AD (my NS is a PDC for windows). See here:
I deleted this entry from AD and I could set my email in Sogo. Sogo reads something from LDAP database.
Pls. check if you can reproduce this and in case off, I would call it a bug. People usually use this field in AD.

Hello hucky,
IMAP on outlook 2016 for an account with a mail alias works for me. The only thing important is to use the user server domain to authenticate (user@serverdomain), but you can use the alias as mail address. If I analyse the mail header of the email I receive, I can see (Authenticated sender: user@serverdomain), but this is harmless, everything else is pointing to the mail alias. So for me this works as it should. Hope that helps.
Hey Andreas,
at my side (with outlook2013, android devices, ios devices) everything went well. I have Contacts,Calendar and Emails. the only thing what did not work is if i send emails to an external domain, then i get from outlook,android or ios the mx error. when i use the webgui it works also fine cause it use the adress i put in as answering address.
I don’t have an outlook 2013 here, but listen to this:
Are you using a Smarthost to send mails out into the world?
The Smarthost connects (with login data) to you provider you have registered a domain/mailbox?
In this case typically the provider would only accept mails coming from your registered domain, not from any other because of spammer protection.
To verify the reason we should first check your outlook settings. Can you post it here?
Then when you get back the error msg you should post the mailheader here that we can see who reports the problem and what email is used to send out (guess you smarhost reports it).
Also in my mailheader I can find (Authenticated sender: user@serverdomain). Maybe this is why your smart host wont forward the mail, because here you will find you internal server domain.

yes, of course i have an registered mailbox etc. and also the outlook settings are okay. The most ISP´s are checking the domain from sender if it exist or not, this is the problem, from webgui sogo takes the mailadress from the registered domain, only from the devices with android, ios or the outlook client it has that error. it works before, i guess with sogo something has changed. in the past i changed the domain in sogo.conf and it works, now it dont work.
if you send out by imap is sogo involved at all? Or do you use active sync?
i use activesync
OK, then Sogo and/or NS will create the mail header used for the outgoing mail. The difference will be in the mail header. Have a look into! The mail sent back from your smarthost will include it.
@asl I can confirm this behavior of Sogo.
If I put an emailadress in here
it’s impossible to save another email-adress in Sogo. It jumps always back to the default one (user@domain.tld).
Thanks for figuring this out. Should be mentioned in the installationguide of SOGo.
Hello,
good to hear that you have the same. Minimum to mention this inside the guide, but for me this looks much more like a bug. Shouldn’t we open a bug for that? This field in AD is nearly used in every organization I saw, so this will lead very often to conflicts. And what is wrong for Sogo to use a correct email?

Sorry I don’t know if this is related to NS or to SOGo. So if this is related to SOGo I’m afraid we can’t fix this.
Maybe @davidep or @giacomo can say if this is related to NS?
It seems our config relies on “mail” field heavily 
Suggestions and pull requests are welcome!

someone knows the real name of this field ?
@davidep some clues without I install a F… window 
@asl @flatspin maybe youcan help me if you install nethserver-ldapadamin
Sorry guys but that field has nothing in common with the default email address for the user account. Here you can put any email account you want. This field is “General”.
To set the default email address for an user, you must have something like an “Exchange connector”.
I used this feature when I have used AXIGEN as email server, with an additional module provided by AXIGEN (Axigen Active Directory Extension for Windows). After I have installed this module, I was able to set the default email address for the user in AD user account ( https://www.axigen.com/knowledgebase/Synchronizing-Axigen-with-an-Active-Directory_269.html ).
