A destination is a real email address — one you actually own and log into. It's where AliasFleet forwards email that arrives at your aliases.
When someone sends an email to your alias, AliasFleet receives it and passes it on to whatever destination that alias is set to forward to. From your end it appears in your normal inbox like any other email.
Why not just forward to any address?
AliasFleet requires you to verify each destination before it can receive forwarded mail. This protects against someone setting up aliases that forward to an address they don't own. Verification confirms you control the inbox before any mail goes there.
You can have more than one
Your account can hold multiple destinations. This is useful if you:
- Use separate inboxes for work and personal life
- Want certain aliases going to a shared team inbox
- Have multiple email providers and want different aliases on different ones
Each alias is assigned to one destination. You pick which one when you create the alias, and you can change it later from the alias settings.
The primary destination
One destination is marked as your primary (default). When you create a new alias without picking a destination, it automatically forwards to the primary one. You can change which destination is primary at any time — see Setting a default destination.
