Introduction
An email alias is an alternate email address for the same email box. Email sent to an alias will appear in the account's inbox just like email sent to the primary email address. For example, you might want email to john_smith@yourcompanyname.com and IT@yourcompanyname.com to go to the same mailbox. Alternately, if you have multiple domains, you may want email sent to sales@domain1.com and sales@domain2.com delivered to one mailbox. Both scenarios are possible using aliases. Follow the instructions below to create an email alias for your account.
