      Hi all, I know you now can have different domains and emails on one cloudron. But what I am looking for is to have multiple domain aliases pointing to one email address.

      For example, these aliases:

      • alias@domain1.com
      • alias@domain2.com
      • alias@domain3.com

      All point to (send and receive from) email account:
      email@domain1.com

      Is this possible? Doesn't seem so. Seems like the email is restricted to the domain. Hope this makes sense. Thanks for the help!

        If I understand that scenario correctly, you can add the alias account on all domains to the email@domain1.com mailbox-owner/user and after logging in, you set up forwarding rules in either rainloop or roundcube to that domain, that should do the trick.

          Thanks for the info. So would I have to have multiple rainloops installed then to do the forwarding, one for each domain?

          I see you can add external domains via rainloop as well but I didn't see how to do that even though I was logging in as admin.

          Thanks again.

            The proposal from @msbt is currently the only supported way, as Cloudron does not support cross domain aliases. Also rainloop is setup in a way that it only works with one domain, the one where it is installed at. To create the server side sieve rules for forwarding, you could also use other mail clients instead of Rainloop, which support sieve. One example is Thunderbird with the sieve plugin.

                Would cross domain aliases be something you would consider for future releases? I personally would see this as something very common in business environments.

                    This was implemented in 5.2

                      @NCKNE Basically this is how GSuite works and make sense to me to be default behaviour.

                        @girish sorry, might need an explainer - does this need all the full email addresses adding as aliases or is it automagic (al la GSuite) where mailboxes, aliases & lists will all work for all domains unless they have their own setup?

                          @marcusquinn Are you asking what this feature is? Look for inter-domain aliases in https://cloudron.io/blog/2020-06-01-cloudron-5.2.html
