I’m using Delta Chat 1.20.5 for Android. The email-account that I use in Delta Chat is personalized with my full name because I only use Delta Chat with my family so far. Now I wanted to get E-Mail notifications as close as possible to real time but I don’t want to give the newsletter provider personal data.
So I created a new email address (not an account) to redirect messages to my Delta Chat account.
Now each incoming message of the newsletter is a contact request in Delta Chat - even if I accept one ore more of the requests. When I look at the profile of the request, I can see a group containing the addresses of me, my forwarding address and the address of the newsletter provider.
Is there a setting I forgot to make this work? Or is the only way to create a new account with my new address? (i would prefer having only one account)
Thank you for helping.
I’m sorry that my previous explanation might be misunderstanding. The situation is this:
In Delta Chat I’m using my address myname@domain.tld. I created an additional email address something@domain.tld and set a rule to forward all incoming emails to myname@domain.tld.
I registered at the newsletter provider with something@domain.tld.
Now all newsletter messages are sent by newsletter@provider.tld to something@domain.tld. Because of the forwarding rule they reach my Delta Chat account. But every time only as a request.
Maybe the topic should have been “Delta Chat with forwarded newsletter messages”
I have the same issue with simple login email aliases. Every message appears as a new chat, a group of 3 members — the sender, my simplelogin alias and my actual email hidden behind the alias.
There is no such issue with other newsletters — emails with different subjects go to same chat.
