Force mail sender from

[nctelecom (Christophe Marquet)]

Hi all,

I’ve one problem, I have one mail domain (main domain on nethserver installation) and some alias domain. I have configured one alias to be send to one local account but when I want to send mail with this account I could not make it send mail from the domain alias, if I configure the SOGo send from it always add on behalf of in the send from. Example :
main domain xyz.com
alias domain abc.com
one user user1@xyz.com

Then for receiving mail no problem .

But when I want to send mail and modify SOGo to send the mail from user1@abc.com, the mail is sent but not as being send as user1@abc.com but as user1@abc.com on behalf of user1@xyz.com.

Then my question is how to make the user1 send all mail with user2@abc.com instead of xyz.com.

Regards.

Hi Christophe,

welcome to NethServer Community.

SOGo 4 does not support identities like Roundcube or Webtop.
You may create an IMAP account in Sogo with the correct from address.

Mail aliases for SOgo 3 as From addres

I’ve found a workaround for this. I have created an alias toto of user1@tst.lan . In sogo/settings i have defined an imap account toto@tst.lan and then i can select toto@tst.lan from the menu when i send a mail. I agree that it is not possible to do like this when you have lot of account with alias but perhaps it can help someone who have only one like me

Can I answer as alias

It’s a wanted feature since 2010, but still not realized, seems not to be one of their main goals. https://lists.inverse.ca/sogo/arc/users/2018-03/msg00083.html I can only recommend roundcube, webtop or thunderbird for identities.

SOGo does not support identities like Roundcube or Webtop.

it seems now with the version 5.0.0 it is something available

for now sogo 5.0.0 is in nethforge-testing

yum update sogo\* sope\* --enablerepo=nethforge-testing

Oh yeah, SOGo 5 has multiple identities! That’s really great! It was a long missing feature.
The settings are in the IMAP account.

The SOGo update worked flawlessly.
