Changing the recipients for an alias

Each alias forwards incoming mail to one or more recipients (your real email addresses). You can change which recipients an alias uses at any time-for example, to send an alias' mail to a different inbox or to add a second address. This article explains how to change the recipients for an alias on addy.io.

Changing the recipients of an email alias on addy.io

  1. Log in and go to Aliases in the navigation bar.
  2. Find the alias whose recipients you want to change and click the "pencil" edit icon (as shown in the red box below) to open the modal.
  3. Add or remove recipients: select from your verified recipients list, or remove one from the list in the modal.
  4. Click Update Recipients. From then on, mail to that alias will be forwarded to the recipient(s) you set.

You can also select multiple aliases (up to 25) and edit the recipients for them all in one go too.

New aliases use your account’s default recipient until you change them. You can change recipients from the web app, and mobile app as well. Recipients must be added and verified before you can assign them to an alias.
