Identities, Signature and PGP
-
Hello, your email client looks beautiful, but coming from Thunderbird, I'm missing 3 crucial features:
- My email provider has [email protected] as ONE and ONLY email account login.
And all the emails generated within this account are connected to this ONE and ONLY email.
I have a custom domain set up with my email provider and I have multiple alias.
Thunderbird calls the feature identities, that enables me the option to add aliases connected of custom domain, like:
[email protected]
[email protected]To sum up, give the option to create many identities inside the one main email account.
-
I'd also like to see an option to add image signature + text within each identities to have unique signatures for each and every alias:
[email protected]
[email protected] -
I'd like to see something like Thunderbird's built-in OpenPGP Key Manager, which enables an option to import already-generated public, secret PGP keys and additionally, gives the option to generate brand new PGP keys within the mail client.

Hi, my email providers provide mail aliases but you cant choose names already used. As domain owner you are the provider, more or less.
Can you check "Aliases" in the Vivaldi mail client settings?
For me it provide only username+alias@maildomain.A rule for a request is, only one request per thread because user can vote for a request. I want to vote for 3 but not for 1 and 2, what should I do.
Cheers, mib

@mib2berlin Hello, I don't use username+alias@maildomain.
I use [email protected] which is connected to the main email account, called identity in Thunderbird.
I tried, but I can not add new identity in Vivaldi mail client.

This work only if you own the domain.com, I try to add an identity with Thunderbird for my [email protected] account.
It was added by Thunderbird but if I send a mail to [email protected] it was rejected.
Do I understand this correctly?
If yes this is a special case but why not, if user have a mail domain or own mail server support this.Cheers, mib

@winsport multiple
Aliases
for a mail account can be configured on thevivaldi://settings/mail/
panel.There you can also add signatures for the primary and aliased sender setups (plain & fancy).
The GPG support is said to be on the roadmap.
Hopefully it will land in a form that does not have Thunderbirds functional regressions in relation to external GPG use. -
@becm Hello, I successfully logged in with my main email account [email protected], but I was not able to add custom domain aliases within the main email:
[email protected]I do not use, which could be set up via Vivaldi Mail:
[email protected] -
@winsport writing
[email protected]
in the input field and pressing the "Add Alias" button works for me.
The default value (with+
) is a non-binding suggestion, you actually have to type in the alias (sender address) you want. -
@becm Thanks, will try again.
-
@becm Finally made identity and signature work after 2nd try, thanks again.
I have spelling checker extension installed on Vivaldi, but it does not seem to be working for email body, how to enable?

I don't know the answer but just in case you don't know about it, there is a spell checker built in. https://help.vivaldi.com/desktop/tools/spell-checker/#Turn_spell_check_on_and_off

@WildEnte Thanks, but I use privacy-friendly spelling checker extension.

@winsport oh good call, didn't think about that. I never use spell check in the first place...
