[edit] Introduction

[edit] Domain alias

The domain alias feature will allow you to define a secondary domain that will behave in the same way as the main domain. Applied to mail, this means that the mail accounts defined for your main domain will also receive the mail sent to the same addresses but for another domain.

Example:

We have 2 domains domain.co.uk and anotherdomain.co.uk.
We purchased a Web Pro + for domain.co.uk and created 3 mail accounts sales@domain.co.uk, support@domain.co.uk and webmaster@domain.co.uk.
If we add anotherdomain.co.uk as a mail domain alias to domain.co.uk:
- we will receive the messages for both sales@domain.co.uk and sales@anotherdomain.co.uk in the sales@domain.co.uk account
- we will receive the messages for both support@domain.co.uk and support@anotherdomain.co.uk in the support@domain.co.uk account
- we will receive the messages for both webmaster@domain.co.uk and webmaster@anotherdomain.co.uk in the webmaster@domain.co.uk account

To add a domain as a mail alias for your package:

From the main screen:
Enter the domain in the box and click on

In order to make this feature work correctly, the MX record for the domain alias HAS TO point to the same mail server as the main domain.
If the domain alias is in any of our + packages (NAME +, MAIL + or PRO +), you will need to contact support in order for us to delete the mail service for the domain alias so that it is accepted.
