Webmail has wrong from address

When you first login to webmail it will probably have the wrong from email address setup. It will be something@localhost (e.g. neill@localhost instead of neill@ace-hosting.com.au). This won't stop you sending email, but it means that whoever receives the email will not be able to reply. This is almost certainly not what you want.

To fix this do the following:

Login to Webmail at https://ace-hosting.com.au/webmail
Click on the settings icon
Click on Identities in the Settings menu on the left hand side
Click on the first identity (the one that ends with @localhost)
In the next screen change the email and display name to something approprite (i.e. your actual email and name)
Click the save button

Now, webmail should send email with the correct reply-to/from address.
