If you install Mail app you can send and receive email using the address like: [user]@[domain name].syncloud.it
You should be able to send email from Roundcube out of the box.
In rare cases your Internet provider may block outbound port 25. Use the following command to check, if you get a timeout that means outbound port 25 is blocked.
nc -vz gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com 25
Most likely your email will end up in spam, so make sure to check spam folder and mark it as non spam. Gmail for example is very aggressive on spam, while Yahoo is not.
You should create a mapping for port 25 (router port 25 -> device port 25)
This will allow you to receive email sent to your device mail.
While default web interface will allow you to do all you need it is possible to use alternative mail apps. You can use standalone mail apps (like K-9 Mail) to read and send email using your Syncloud mail server. For that you will have to open two more port mappings on your router:
Fetching: 993 (IMAP SSL/TLS)
Sending: 587 (SMTP STARTTLS)
Server: [name].syncloud.it (or corresponding custom domain)
Authentication method: Normal password
User: user name without domain name part.
If you are using dynamic IPv4 address your mail may be marked as spam by mail providers. In this case you need to get a static IPv4 or switch to IPv6 ready Internet Provider.
