Profile and identity
Under Settings → Identity you can see how your account looks to others — your name, email address, avatar, and signature. You'll also find aliases and your signature on the same page.
Profile header
At the top of the panel you'll see:
- Avatar — two letters based on your name. Click Change picture to upload your own profile photo.
- Your name — shown as "{First name} {Last name}"
- Your email address — with a copy button next to it
- Plan badge — FREE, PLUS, or PRO
Sender name
Your sender name is what the recipient sees in the From field of your emails — for example, "Per Pettersen <per@onmeil.eu>".
- Type the sender name you want
- Save
You can use your first name, your full name, or even a job title — like "Doc Tester, CEO".
Birthday
If you enter your birthday, it can sync to your calendar and show up in other people's calendars if they have you as a contact. This field is optional.
- Pick a date in the date picker (month / day / year)
- The change is saved automatically
You control separately whether your birthday appears in the calendar — see Contacts for that setting.
Change your profile picture
- Click Change picture on the avatar at the top
- Choose an image from your device (recommended: square, 256×256 pixels or larger)
- The image uploads and appears right away
Your profile picture is used in:
- The recipient's inbox (if their email client supports it)
- When you share an event, file, or folder with others
- In meeting rooms and calendar participant lists
To remove the picture, upload a blank one or choose the default avatar again.
Where do your name and picture appear?
| Where | What's shown |
|---|---|
| Email sender | Sender name + email address |
| Meeting rooms | Sender name + avatar |
| Shared events | Sender name + avatar |
| Shared files/folders | Sender name + avatar |
| Other people's personal calendars | Sender name (if they've added you as a contact) |
What about signature and aliases?
- Aliases (extra addresses that deliver to the same inbox) — see Aliases
- Signature (text added at the bottom of your emails) — see Signature
- Other language and appearance settings — see Preferences
When you delete your account
Your profile information, sender name, birthday, avatar, and email addresses are permanently deleted when you delete your account. See Delete account.
