I moved to Mozilla Thunderbird long ago https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/
People still use dedicated email clients? Why?
It works better for searching, it works offline, catch-all addresses just work with correct from address when replying, backup and archiving, can move mails from box to box without sending.
I also use roundcube, but only to read mails. If I want to reply to a catch-all mail I have to create an alias which is super tedious.
What do you mean by this? I’d like to be able to reply from a website@mydomain.com automatically.
For me Thunderbird makes me create an alias in order to reply to my catch all (*@mydomain.com). Did you have to configure something specifically?
This is built into Thunderbird for a while now.

), for example*@yourdomain.com
I click on my "From" address and then select "Customize From Address...". I can then type anything I want up there. It's a little annoying when replying to an email chain with an alias, but not too many steps.
See my other reply, you can automate this with a setting so you don't have to edit it manually every time.
