Creating an Alias

When you create an alias, you are creating an email address that points to an actual email mailbox or mailboxes. For example, the  alias sales@mydomain.com can point to joe@mydomain.com, mary@mydomain.com, and bill@mydomain.com. Each of those recipients (Mary, Joe, and Bill) would receive the message that was sent to sales@mydomain.com.

1. On the Control Panel Main page, locate Email Hosting | Email Accounts. Click the Manage Aliases link.
2. Click the Add Alias button.
3. Enter a unique alias name in the Create New Alias box.
4. Select the address(es) you want to associate with the alias, and then click the Add button. You may need to use the Filter or Search tools to locate the desired address(es).
5. You can send email from this alias to up to 50 total email addresses, four of which can be outside of your domain. Toadd an address outside of your domain, enter it in the Addmembers outside this domain section. We do not recommend delivering an alias’ messages to an account outside of your domain because the messages will bypass your domain’s spam filters.
6. Click the Save button.

Note: To manage aliases for a specific mailbox, click the
Add / Edit Mailbox link; click the mailbox name, and then click the
Aliases tab.
