E-mail

Some people choose to turn on read receipts (also known as return receipts) in their e-mails. This means that when someone opens your e-mail, they will be given the choice to send a message (read receipt) to you to confirm that your e-mail has arrived.

To turn on read receipts in Roundcube webmail, follow these steps:

  1. Log into your webmail account by visiting webmail.your-web-site-address.co.uk - replacing your-web-site-address.co.uk with your web site's address
  2. Once logged in, click on the 'Roundcube' icon to enter the Roundcube e-mail system

    20.1


  3. Once the page has refreshed, click on the 'Settings' icon in the top-right hand corner
  4. In the middle of the page, click on 'Composing Messages'

    20.2


  5. Now tick the 'Always request a return receipt' box and then click on the 'Save' button at the bottom of the page.


Read receipts will now be turned on. It's a good idea to test this by sending an e-mail to another one of your e-mail accounts to see if the changes have worked for you.

If you use our webmail service you can set an autoresponder for your e-mail accounts.

An autoresponder is a message that is sent, automatically, to someone when they e-mail you. The most common use of these is 'out of office' messages, which people often set when they go on holiday.

To set-up your own autoresponder, just follow these steps:

  1. Log into your e-mail account by visiting webmail.your-web-site-address.co.uk

  2. The screen below will be displayed. If it isn't or if it is shown only for a second, click the back button on your internet browser




  3. Click on the 'Auto Responders' icon at the bottom of the screen

  4. A new page will be displayed. Click on the 'Add Auto Responder' button at the top of the page

  5. Enter '1' in the 'Interval' box. Then enter an e-mail subject in the 'Subject' box and finally enter your autoresponder messsage in the 'Body' text box

  6. If you want to, you can also specify when you would like the autoresponder message to start and stop. For example, if you are going away for a week, you can set the message to only send during the time that you are away and it will stop automatically when you return

  7. Finally, click on the 'Create/Modify' button at the bottom of the page. Your autoresponder message is now active.

With your phone set up as it is, when you delete a message from your phone, it will go to the 'Deleted Items' folder on your phone but not on your webmail account. This is also true when you send an e-mail. If you send an e-mail from your iPhone, you will not see it in the 'Sent' folder on your webmail. These folders are not in sync. This may not be a problem for you, it depends on how you use your webmail and iPhone mail. However, if you would like everything to sync, follow these steps:

  1. On your iPhone tap the 'Settings' icon

  7. Click on 'Draft Mailbox'. You will see that by default the 'Drafts' folder on your iPhone is selected. Scroll down the list of folders under the 'On The Server' header and click on the 'Drafts' folder
  8. Now click on 'Advanced' at the top of the screen. This will take you back a screen
  9. Now click on the 'Sent Mailbox' area
  10. Do the same as before, scroll down the list and click on the 'Sent' folder under 'On The Server'
  11. Now click on 'Advanced' at the top of the screen. This will take you back a screen
  12. Now click on 'Deleted Mailbox'
  13. Do the same as before, scroll down the list and click on the 'Trash' folder under 'On The Server'
  14. Now click on 'Advanced' at the top of the screen. This will take you back a screen
  15. Finally, scroll down until you see the 'Deleted Messages' header. Click on 'Remove' and change the setting to 'Never'
  16. You are now done. Test by sending a message from your iPhone, to yourself. Log on to a computer and see if you see the message. Delete the message from your iPhone and then, back on the computer, check the 'Trash' folder in your webmail to see if the message has moved
  17. Done!
