| Q: | What is the difference between a POP account and an email alias? |
| A: | POP accounts are actually used to log in to a server and check the mail.
Aliases are other email addresses a POP account can use to receive mail. For
example, if your POP account name is john and your site name is
www.example.com, by default, the user john can receive mail at
john@example.com. If you also wanted the user john to receive all mail sent
to sales@example.com, sales@example.com would be an email alias. In short, POP accounts are 'mailboxes' and aliases are additional addresses you may use to direct mail to a particular mailbox. |
