Account Editor

Evolution supports the Maildir++ specification.

Mail accounts can be added by choosing FileNewMail Account or via EditPreferencesMail AccountsAdd. The steps are mostly the same as for the First-Run Assistant, except for not getting asked whether to import data from other applications or to restore from a backup file.

Mail accounts can be edited via EditPreferencesMail AccountsEdit.

The following settings are available when editing an existing account:

Identity (Maildir Format Mail Directories accounts) Identity Identity

Here you define your name and your email address.

Optionally you can set a Reply-To email address (if you want replies to messages sent to a different address), set an organization (a company or organization you represent when you send email from this account), your default signature for this account, and email aliases.
