: : E-mail & Spamming Inquiries : What do you mean by "virtual" email and "real" email? Print
Question:What do you mean by "virtual" email and "real" email?
Answer:Virtual email accounts are also known as email 'alias' accounts.

An Email Alias simply forwards email messages to another location. Email alias does NOT have its own storage space, username, and password and must be associated with another email address (REAL email account). Users who prefer to use a separate email account to read messages (different from the Alias) often choose this route.

If you are currently reading email through your Internet Service Provider, you may choose to direct all email addresses to that existing account. For example, if you are a current AOL customer, have a domain hosted by us called abc.com and would like email messages forwarded to your AOL account, you would setup an Email Alias as follows:

you@abc.com => you@aol.com

Email Aliases also have the advantage of sending to more than one address. You can use an Alias to distribute email messages to a group of people.

To setup email forwarding, please log onto our webmail --> Account Forward.
