How to create an email alias

What an alias does

An alias is an address that forwards mail to another mailbox rather than storing messages separately.

Example

You might forward sales@example.co.uk to hello@example.co.uk so enquiries arrive in one inbox.

Setup

In cPanel, use Forwarders to add the address you want to receive mail for and the destination mailbox it should deliver to.
