Making an email alias means setting up an email that shares the same mailbox as a totally different address both for the inbound as well as the outgoing messages. For instance, you are able to make an email address sales@domain.com and it'll be linked to its very own mailbox. Next, you can make an alias support@domain.com, that will use the mailbox of sales@ and will not use a mailbox of its own. If you check your emails, you will notice e-mail messages sent to both of the two addresses in one place, which can be far more convenient in some circumstances as you will not have to sign in and out of various email addresses working with webmail or set up multiple email addresses in an email program. This option is often used as a substitute for forwarding emails from a single address to a new one if a number of addresses are included for contact on a site.
E-mail Aliases in Shared Hosting
Setting up an alias for every mailbox is really easy if you have a shared hosting plan from our company. You can do this in the Emails area of the Hepsia Control Panel, which is used to control the website hosting accounts and it takes no more than a couple of mouse clicks. It is easy to add or delete a lot of aliases at any time and save precious time when you take care of the e-mails for a few emails which you use - for example, different divisions in a corporation or numerous sections of a site. In case you receive emails from various email addresses in a single mailbox, but people should have a duplicate of specific e-mails, it is possible to combine the aliases with mail forwarding and/or e-mail filters, which can be also set up through Hepsia.
