Understanding Maildomain Aliases
Mail resources on a mail domain that has a mail domain
alias will all have alternative addresses. Mail resources
and their aliases will have different domain parts (i.e. mail
domain and its alias) and the same resource names. For instance,
with example.net being a mail alias to example.com,
every mail resource on example.com will have a counterpart
on example.net, specifically:
mailbox@example.net will be an alternative
mail address to mailbox@example.com
mailforward@example.net will be an
alternative mail address to mailforward@example.com
autoresponder@example.net will be
an alternative mail address to autoresponder@example.com
etc.
Creating Mail Domain Aliases
Mail domain aliases come with regular domain aliases only.
You can't have a mail domain alias without a regular domain
alias. Mail domain alias can be enabled or disabled in your
hosting plan. To create a mail domain alias:
- Select the Domain Settings menu.
- If there are several domains on the page that appears,
choose the one that you'd like to create mail domain alias
for.
- At the bottom of the form, click Add to add a totally
new domain alias or Edit to use your domain alias
with mail service:

- On the next page, when creating or editing existing domain
alias make sure Mail Domain Alias is on:

- Select Mail Info in the Mail Info menu to
check whether Mail Domain Alias has been activated:

Note that on the Mail Settings page you can create
mail domain aliases only based on existing domain aliases.
Removing Mail Domain Aliases
Important:
Removing mail domain aliase, you remove aliases for ALL your
mail resources on the primary mail domain. You cannot remove
a mail domain alias for an individual mail resource.
To remove a mail domain alias:
- Go to the E-mail resource page.
- In the Mail Control section choose the mail domain you
are removing mail domain alias for.
- The Mail Domain Aliases section will list all the current
mail domain aliases for this mail domain.
- Click the Delete icon next to the mail domain alias
you would like to remove.
