Creating a new email address or alias in SmarterMail

Additional email addresses or aliases are added through the SmarterMail web interface after logging in as the Primary Admin, which defaults to [email protected].  If the postmaster password is unavailable, log in automatically at Winhost Control Panel > Sites > the applicable domain name > Email > "SmarterMail Manager" link.


Accounts

After logging in as the Primary Admin, click the More1 drop-down then Domain Settings2.



And the option to create new email users or aliases will be available.


When creating a new email user, note that the "username" is the new email address whereas for an email alias it is the "name".

ie,

Users > New > Username "new" creates the email address [email protected]
Alias > New > Name "new" creates the email alias [email protected]


Catch-all Alias

By default, catch-all aliases are disabled.  To create a catch-all alias, first open a ticket with the Support Department requesting it be enabled for the domain.

Then, if one has not already been created, create an email alias to set as the catch-all.


After an alias has been created, from the General section of the Domain Settings, enter the alias name into the "Catch-all alias" field.


While entering the alias name a pop-up with the matching name will appear below the field.  Make sure to click the name within the pop-up, then "Save" to complete the setup.
