KDEmail.net

Welcome to KDEmail.net!

KDEmail.net is a free service for active KDE contributors, providing them with a stable e-mail address to use as the point of contact for their work and us with a means of publicly expressing our gratitude for their help in making our projects even better.

It is intended to serve as a stepping stone for people who have begun to participate positively and consistently at KDE while they build the body of work needed to successfully apply for a Developer Account and the more exclusive @kde.org e-mail address that is one of its privileges.

Forwarding only

Please note that this service offers e-mail forwarding only. All requests must indicate clearly the e-mail address they wish their KDEmail.net messages to be forwarded to.

Format

E-mail addresses using the kdemail.net domain name must conform to the structure "firstname.lastname@kdemail.net".

Requests

To request your own @kdemail.net account, please click the button below to open a ticket and be sure that the following pieces of information are sufficiently included to the Description field (ticket form will open in a new tab):

Your KDE Identity username
A valid e-mail address to forward the mail to, as well as the exact spelling (including diacritics or any other UTF-8 characters) you prefer for your first and last name.
Give a brief summary of your activity to date on KDE projects, with one or two links, if possible, to the most meaningful contributions.

Optional: By default, KDEmail.net accounts are not created with permission to send e-mail via the mail.kde.org SMTP server. Thus, replies to mail forwarded to you from your kdemail.net alias will appear to the recipient with your personal e-mail account in the "From:" field and will not be threaded as obvious replies to their original message. If you would prefer instead that replies to e-mails sent to your KDEmail.net address appear to originate from that address as well, state clearly in the ticket description that you are also requesting send permissions on the mail.kde.org SMTP server. If granted, you can then add the server to your MUA (Mail User Agent)/e-mail client accordingly.

* The Sysadmin team is small and very busy, so please be patient while your request is reviewed.
