README

Overview

This plugin adds a blue button to the compose screen, next to the identities selection dropdown. By clicking it, a textbox will replace the dropdown, allowing you to enter whatever you want as sender value (it must be a valid "From:" header field value, though).

When replying to an e-mail sent to you through an address not in your identities list, plugin will automatically fire and set "From:" header to the address the original e-mail was sent to.

Install

Option 1: install with Composer

Execute composer require r3c/custom-from from your RoundCube install directory and run the install command. See instructions from RoundCube website for details: https://plugins.roundcube.net/.

Option 2: install manually

Clone repository content to a custom_from directory inside your RoundCube plugins directory, so that file custom_from.php file can be found at $ROUNDCUBE_INSTALL_DIRECTORY/plugins/custom_from/custom_from.php.

cd $ROUNDCUBE_INSTALL_DIRECTORY
git clone https://github.com/r3c/custom_from.git

Then reference plugin by adding an item "custom_from" to RoundCube plugins list in configuration (variable $config['plugins'] variable in file $ROUNDCUBE_INSTALL_DIRECTORY/config/main.inc.php). Ensure your web user has read access to the plugin directory and all files in it.

Usage

Once plugin is installed, custom sender button will appear at the right hand side of the identity selection list.

If you want to disable the "automatic replacement on reply" feature, rename config.inc.php.dist file into config.inc.php, uncomment the line with a parameter named custom_from_compose_auto and set this value to false.
