| What is an alias? | An alias address (or pseudonym, nickname, etc.) is most often used to surf, chat etc. on the Internet to hide your real identity or to define a role like webmaster@swissmail.org. Messages sent to such aliases will automatically be forwarded to the mailbox they belong to, i.e. to the primary address. For this reason, an alias address cannot really be treated as a separate mailbox. |

| What is the difference between Alias and Sender-Addresses? | With a Standard or Professional Account, Alias addresses can be defined. These are additional swissmail.org email addresses, but belong to the same account and are freely selectable. Messages sent to such aliases will automatically be forwarded to the mailbox they belong to, i.e. to the primary address. With a Standard or Professional Account additional Sender addresses which do not belong to swissmail.org can be defined. You have to be the owner of those email addresses as they only are active when the owner confirms them (a confirmation link will be sent to the owner). The Sender addresses can only be used as a sender. |

Now for each mail which is saved in your inbox the message you defined in the autoreply field will be sent back. For Basic Accounts: Log into your account on swissmail.org; select "Controlcenter" and then "Rules" on the left; enter the "auto-reply" message into the "Auto-reply" field provided and save the changes. |
