Aliases & Catch-All

What is an Email Alias?

An alias is an additional email address that forwards to an existing mailbox. For example, you could have hello@yourdomain.com and info@yourdomain.com both deliver to a single inbox, without creating two separate accounts.

• Aliases do not have their own storage quota.
• Replies are sent from the main mailbox address, not the alias.
• You can create as many aliases as you need.

Creating an Alias

1. Log in to the OnePoundEmail control panel.
2. In the left sidebar, click Email Forwarders.
3. Click Add Forwarder.
4. Enter the alias address in the From field (e.g. hello@yourdomain.com).
5. Enter the destination mailbox in the To field (e.g. main@yourdomain.com).
6. Click Save to create the alias.

What is a Catch-All Address?

A catch-all address receives any email sent to your domain that does not match an existing account or forwarder. For example, if someone sends an email to typo@yourdomain.com and that address does not exist, the catch-all receives it instead of bouncing.

Setting Up a Catch-All

1. Log in to the OnePoundEmail control panel.
2. In the left sidebar, click Email Forwarders.
3. Click Add Forwarder.
4. In the From field, enter *@yourdomain.com (replace with your actual domain).
5. Enter the destination address in the To field.
6. Click Save.
