• Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service.

  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Resolved Plesk Premium Email - From Address

BuzzLightBurger

New Pleskian
Hi
When sending email via an iPhone using activesync (Exchange) the from address is presented to the recipient as user@domain.tld.

I have seen someone modify a PHP script in order to allow the (usually vacant) domain part of the account settings to be used to populate a user's full name in order to populate the FROM address correctly, ie, "first_name last_name <user@domain.tld>"

This can be seen via this page

Can this be achieved somehow with this 'premium' email extension?

Sending emails to clients via an activesync linked device looks a tad unprofessional at the moment and either a simple hack or a more preferred option to add a tick box in order to toggle the use of the domain field as a name field would be ideal.

Regards
 
Judging from the lack of response, can I assume that plesk/kolab are following protocol here and it is in fact iOS that has the issue (missing the option to send the full name variable)?

Hello,
I had same issue with ios devices on Exchange accounts. Because of the ios system sender name shown as user@domain.tld.

In kolab configuration there is a configuration item.

/etc/roundcubemail/kolab_syncroton.inc.php
activesync_fix_from

if you enable this config, sender names will be shown on email. But I think you have to set name and surname first on webmail.

Hi
Thanks for that, it seems to work via the information entered via Settings > Identities > Display Name on the webmail GUI.

Regards
