An identity is a From name and address you can send as, for example your own address and a shared sales@ alias. Each identity can have its own signature.
Add an identity
- Click the gear icon next to your name in the top left to open Preferences.
- Click Mail, then the IMAP Accounts tab, then the pencil next to your account.
- Under Identities, click New Identity and fill in the name and email address. You can also add a signature.
- Click OK, then the save icon.
Only use addresses you own. On an Email Pro plan, add the address as an alias to your mailbox first (see Email Pro Control Panel: Forwarding, Aliases and Extra Storage).
Send from a different identity
- Start a new message, reply or forward.
- Click the From field at the top of the message window.
- Choose the identity to send from. The signature changes to match.
Tip: tick Always use the default identity when replying to messages in the same account window if you always want replies to come from one address. Mark your main identity as the default with the heart icon.
