Setting Up Your Email Identity

This guide explains how to set up and configure your email identity in the OneClickWorker platform, which determines how your emails appear to recipients and your email address format.

Understanding Your OneClickWorker Email Address

When using the OneClickWorker email system, you'll send and receive emails using a personalized email address in the format:

username@mail.oneclickworker.com

Where "username" is derived from your display name configured in your profile settings.

For example:

  • If your display name is set to "John.Smith", your email address will be john.smith@mail.oneclickworker.com
  • Emails will be sent with the display name "John Smith"

Accessing Email Settings

To configure your email identity:

  1. Log in to your OneClickWorker account at https://app.oneclickworker.com/
  2. Navigate to the Profile section from the main navigation menu or by going to /profile
  3. Scroll down to the "Email Settings" section

Configuring Your Display Name

The display name setting serves two important purposes:

  1. It determines the username portion of your OneClickWorker email address
  2. It sets the display name that recipients will see when you send emails

To set or update your display name:

  1. In the Email Settings section of your profile, locate the "Display Name" field
  2. Enter your preferred name in the format you wish to use (e.g., "John.Smith", "Jane.Doe")
  3. Click the "Save" button to apply your changes

Display Name Guidelines

When choosing your display name, consider these guidelines:

  • Use a professional format, typically your first and last name
  • Separate name parts with periods (e.g., "First.Last")
  • Avoid using special characters other than periods
  • Choose a name that clearly identifies you to recipients

How Your Display Name Affects Your Email

Your display name setting has two effects:

  1. Email Address: The display name is converted to lowercase and used as the username portion of your email address. For example, "John.Smith" becomes john.smith@mail.oneclickworker.com.

  2. Sender Name: When recipients receive your emails, they will see your display name as the sender name. For example, if your display name is "John.Smith", recipients will see "John Smith" as the sender.

Verifying Your Email Configuration

After setting up your email identity:

  1. Navigate to the Inbox section from the main navigation menu
  2. Compose a test email to yourself or a colleague
  3. Check that the email is sent from your expected email address
  4. Verify that the recipient sees your correct display name

Email Identity Best Practices

  • Be Consistent: Use the same email identity across all your professional communications
  • Keep It Professional: Choose a display name that reflects your professional identity
  • Update When Needed: If your name changes, update your display name promptly
  • Inform Contacts: Let your contacts know if you change your email identity
