Using Imail, what is an alias and how do I set one up?

0

An alias is a nickname for a real email account. You use aliases to create several email addresses that all point to the same mailbox. For instance, let’s say you have an employee named William B. User. You can create a mailbox called williamuser@yourdomain.com. You can then log into that mailbox and create aliases, such as will@yourdomain.com, wuser@yourdomain.com, and wbu@yourdomain.com. Let’s also assume that William is the head of marketing. You could also create an alias marketing@yourdomain.com. ALL of these emails will now go to the main mailbox, williamuser@yourdomain.com. William only has to log in to williamuser@yourdomain.com to see the email from all of these addresses. To create an alias, log in as the administrator (admin@yourdomain.com). Click “Alias Administration” on the lower right hand side. Then click “Add”. Make sure that in the “Destination” box you enter an email address of a USER, not another ALIAS. The address should be entered in this format: williamuser@yourd
