Creating an email alias means making an e-mail address that shares the exact same mailbox as a completely different e-mail address both for the inbound as well as the outbound emails. For example, you can create an e-mail address sales@domain.com and it'll be linked to its own mailbox. Then, you can make an alias support@domain.com, that will use the mailbox of sales@ and does not have a mailbox of its own. Once you look at your email messages, you'll see messages sent to both of the two addresses in a single place, which might be more convenient in some instances since you will not have to log in and out of various email addresses working with webmail or set up many email addresses in an email program. This option is normally used as an alternative to forwarding e-mail messages from a single address to another one if a number of email addresses are mentioned for contact on a site.
E-mail Aliases in Cloud Website Hosting
It is easy to make many e-mail aliases with any of the cloud website hosting plans that we offer. Adding an alias to any existing email address in your account takes a couple of mouse clicks and you’ll also be able to set up or remove aliases at any moment. This can be done in the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel, used to handle your hosting accounts. The option can save you precious time when you need to handle the digital communication for various sections, each having its very own email. If you send a reply to a customer, they will receive the email coming from the alias, not from the primary email address associated with the mailbox. If you have multiple sites and email addresses, it is easy to combine using aliases along with our e-mail forwarding feature as it can be far more convenient and time-saving to get all messages in one place.
