If someone tells you to email them at daniel@yourcontentfactory.com — and later you see an email from danielg@blitzmetrics.com — don’t worry, you’re not going crazy. They’re the same person, just using alias emails.
Alias emails are alternate addresses that all point to the same inbox. You don’t need to manage multiple logins or check different accounts. Everything comes to one place.
Here’s what alias emails are, how they work, and why we use them.
What Is an Alias Email?
An alias email is simply another address that delivers messages to your main inbox.
You might have seen a setup like this:
- Primary email login: danielg@blitzmetrics.com
- Aliases (alternate addresses):
- daniel@blitzmetrics.com
- daniel.goodrich@blitzmetrics.com
- daniel.goodrich@yourcontentfactory.com
- daniel@yourcontentfactory.com
You don’t need to log in to each of these separately. All of them deliver messages to the same inbox — and replies can be sent from any of them (if configured).
Why Use Alias Emails?
Alias emails help simplify communication without adding extra inboxes. Here’s why we use them:
- Branding: Use the right domain for the client or brand — e.g., @yourcontentfactory.com vs @blitzmetrics.com.
- Consistency: Some people prefer full names (daniel.goodrich), others go by first names (daniel). Both work.
- Inbox management: One login, one inbox, many ways to be reached.
You can think of aliases like nicknames for your email address — they all reach you.
Common Questions
Can I log in to each alias email?
No. All alias emails are just alternate names for your one email account. You only need to log in once.
Can I receive emails at any of the aliases?
Yes — they all deliver to your same inbox.
Can I send emails from an alias address?
Yes, usually. Most email systems (like Gmail) let you choose the “From” address. If that option isn’t visible, ask your admin to enable it.
How do I know if I have aliases?
Your email admin or onboarding team usually sets them up. You can check by composing a message in Gmail and seeing which “From” addresses are available in the dropdown.
