Secondary Addresses

Secondary addresses (also known as aliases) allow you to send emails with a different “From:” address than the one from the account.

You can add an additional email address by clicking the + Add button in an existing account configuration. This opens a dialog where you can add your address:

Add a secondary address and configure a group to start sending emails with it.

Warning

🙅 Do not abuse this feature.

If you use secondary addresses to impersonate other parties, your IP is liable to get added to a spam blacklist.

Your email provider may also be set up to receive incoming messages for many addresses in the same mailbox. If this is the case, be sure to add your alternate inbox addresses here.
