send email from forwarder address

[atomicrabbit]

Please consider allowing users to send email as if it was sending from one of the created email forwarders.

For example, if I created an email forwarder:
abc@mydomain.com

and email sent to it would be forwarded to my main email account myname@mydomain.com

I would like to be able to send an email as if it was FROM abc@mydomain.com.

A good way to possibly implement this would be... let's say I log into RoundCube webmail, and I start a new email, in the Sender dropdown, I would be able to select one of my Forwarders (if I have any set up). See the idea in my picture below:

I'm not sure if this is possible, so please give me some feedback. It's an option I would love to be able to use.

you can do so in roundcube!!

go to personal settings, identities, new identity, create your forwarder identity, go back to email, compose an email & you will be able to choose the identity (email address) you want to send the email from

well that was a pleasant surprise... the hostgator support said it was not possible. Now a nice feature would be to be able to do this from Outlook...

maybe be able to set up an email address like mainaccount+forwardername@mydomain.com

but that's just getting complicated.

Thanks for the tip, pazeh.
