2018-10-04 04:50:57 +00:00
### alternate domains and addresses
2018-06-24 16:42:14 +00:00
2019-07-18 01:20:31 +00:00
because [~ben ](https://tilde.team/~ben/ ) hoards domain names, you can use any of the [domains on this list ](domains ) with your tildemail:
2018-06-24 16:26:39 +00:00
2019-01-07 17:57:49 +00:00
mail sent to yourusername@ any of those domains will end up in your inbox. most clients will allow you to add additional identities/aliases.
2018-08-16 04:26:45 +00:00
2019-05-09 17:47:32 +00:00
additionally, any address with a `+` and arbitrary text behind it will be forwarded to you email: ie. `your_username+somethingcool@tildeteam.org` .
2018-08-09 14:28:14 +00:00
feel free to use as many as you'd like :)
2018-06-11 02:06:49 +00:00
2018-10-04 04:50:57 +00:00
### forwarding and sieve
2018-06-24 16:42:14 +00:00
if you would like your tildemail to be forwarded somewhere else, put that email address in ~/.forward
2018-06-11 16:34:33 +00:00
2018-10-04 04:50:57 +00:00
```bash
echo myotheraddress@example.com > ~/.forward
```
we also have [sieve ](http://sieve.info ) and [managesieve ](https://wiki1.dovecot.org/ManageSieve ) support.
scripts belong in `~/sieve/` , with the active sieve script in `~/.dovecot.sieve` (to conform with managesieve).
here are some [example sieve scripts ](https://wiki.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole/Sieve/Examples )
managesieve is available on the default port (4190) if you want to use an external managesieve client (like the [thunderbird add-on ](https://github.com/thsmi/sieve )).
[webmail ](https://mail.tilde.team ) is pre-configured to work with your local sieve scripts.
