What is a mail alias?

A mail alias on AMSAT.ORG is an email address of the form callsign@amsat.org, where callsign is your amateur radio callsign. When somebody sends an email message addressed to callsign@amsat.org, the message is first delivered to the AMSAT.ORG computer in San Diego. That computer then looks up your real email address, and re-delivers the message to your regular mailbox. You receive the mail as you normally would, but the sender never had to know your real email address.
