Google Group vs email alias

[Charmaine Hattrill]

Hey Rob

We are updating our brochures and website and want to have a ‘[email protected]’ (or something similar) that comes straight to me and I can filter it to the appropriate person.

I thought we had a ‘office@’ but I think I’m thinking about the google groups instead of an actual email address for outsiders to use to contact the school.

Are you able to give me a hand with this please?

Thanks

Charmaine  🙂

Hi Charmaine,

Good question. I think the best way to achieve what you describe is to create an alias for [email protected] on your user account.

An alias is an alternative email address that can be assigned to a user – so it is quite a flexible way to give users additional roles.

To do this:

1. Log into admin.google.com and search for your username.
2. Scroll down to Account > Aliases and add in info@…

You can have as many as you like, for example you might give Tina god@ (or would it be goddess@ haha?).

Rob 😉
