Creating
Email Aliases
When you create an alias, you are creating an email address
that points to an actual email account or accounts. For example,
the alias sales@mydomain.com can point to joe@mydomain.com,
mary@mydomain.com, and bill@mydomain.com. Each of those recipients
(Mary, Joe, and Bill) would receive the message that was sent
to sales@mydomain.com
- Log in to the control panel at https://admin.osiemail.com
- Click the Email Accounts link.
- Click the Aliases link.
- If prompted, select a domain from the list. Alternately
you can change domains by clicking the change domain link.
- Click the Add Alias button.
- Enter a unique alias name in the Alias box.
- Click the arrow on the Filter drop-down menu and select
All. Or, to view addresses according to the first letter,
select a letter from the list. To search for a specific
address, enter the username in the Search for Users box
and click the Go button.
- Click once on the address you want to add, and then click
the Add button. The address will appear in the right-hand
box.
- Repeat Step 8 for each address you want to add.
- You can send email from this alias to up to 50 total
email addresses, four of which can be outside of your domain.
To add an address outside of your domain, enter it in the
Addresses Outside of this Domain section. We do not recommend
delivering an alias’ messages to an account outside
of your domain because the messages will bypass your domain’s
spam filters.
- Click the Save button.
