## Alias Setup
|
|
|
|
|
|
Well //an// identity, you can have many
|
|
Thus its incredibly important
|
|
[This talk is incredibly useful for a good overview][1]
|
|
[We have SPF, DKIM and DMARK][4]
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Aliases
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Delivering to //your// mailbox is all good and grand
|
|
But what if you want to be someone else?
|
|
Such as a service account, for example: ``root[at symbol]skynet.ie``
|
|
Thankfully that is possible (if you are given access)
|
|
[We have aliases set up for stuff like that][2]
|
|
So anyone in these groups gets mail from these addresses sent to them
|
|
These (in our case) get sent to a subfolder in our inboxes
|
|
But what if we want to send mail as the service account?
|
|
In [Thunderbird][3] it is relatively easy
|
|
Sign into your Skynet account on Thunderbird
|
|
Select ``Settings`` (bottom right)
|
|
|
|
Select ``Account Setttings``
|
|
|
|
Select your Skynet email then ``Manage Identities``
|
|
|
|
This screen has all your current Identities
|
|
Select ``Add``
|
|
|
|
Add yer ``Name``, ``Email Address`` you want to alias and select ``OK``
|
|
|
|
In this example I would be able to send mail as ``this_is_a_real_email[at symbol]skynet.ie``
|
|
(if I was actually allowed to do so)
