Title: Problem with Outgoing email not properly formated.
Post by: david-evolution on August 14, 2014, 10:22:16 AM
Hello RoundCube community,
I am David. I recently started using RoundCube but I am experiencing some problems.

The name and email when I send and email is not correct.

Example I try to send an email to myself

[email protected]

and instead of getting something like

David Surname <[email protected]>

I get something like this

evolution-david <[email protected]>

The problem is obviously on the config.ini.php which looks like this.

$config['smtp_server'] = 'mail.evolution.com';
$config['smtp_port'] = 25;
$config['smtp_user'] = '%u';
$config['smtp_pass'] = '%p';
$config['smtp_auth_type'] = 'PLAIN';
$config['smtp_helo_host'] = '';
$config['smtp_log'] = TRUE;


The problem is that the mail in our company has a username like evolution-david for an email like [email protected].

Normally this is the setup we use on our thunderbirds

Username:evolution-david
Password: xXXXXXXXXXXX
Incoming mail:  mail.evolution.com
Outcoming mail: mail.evolution.com


I am not sure how to overcome this problem so I would greatly appreciate any help.

Some extra info.

When we set up Thunderbird or Outlook we have to accept a few certificates in order for the outgoing messages to be sent.

Go to the setting screen in Roundcube and then Identities and you can set your name and address.

You can set the default domain to use by setting mail_domin in your config file otherwise it uses the imap host as it has here.
