Abstract

E-mail has become a vital tool for communication in the digital era. But it's becoming more and harder to manage emails effectively while maintaining security due to the increase in online dangers and email traffic. One possible way to overcome these difficulties is via email aliasing, which involves setting up several email accounts that forward messages to a central mailbox. Generating many email names for a single mailbox, or email aliasing, has several advantages, such as increased security, better workflow, and effective communication. An in-depth discussion of email aliasing's features, advantages, potential security risks, and implementation methods is presented through this work. This article aims to provide helpful information to people and businesses looking to improve email management procedures by clarifying how email aliasing contributes to increased email security and efficiency.
