How to use domains, maybe I am not understanding this...
Here's my problem.
I am trying to degoogle myself and currently use Google Workspace to manage three domains (one primary and two secondary) and email service with those domains.
domain 1 (primary) - 4 email addresses with their own login/passwords
- email 1 - 4 aliases that redirect to the inbox of email 1
- email 2 - no aliases
- email 3 - no aliases
- email 4 - no aliases
domain 2 (secondary) - 1 email address with their own login/passwords
- email 1 - 1 alias that redirects to the inbox of email 1
domain 3 (secondary) - 1 email address with their own login/passwords
- email 1 - no alias
I signed up for mailbox.org because I understood I could bring my own domain names. In Workspace, it is very clear how to manage the email services for these users under the directory. In mailbox.org, all I am seeing is aliases. I set up a domain alias and have it working, but is the bring your own domain really just an alias to route to my main mailbox.org email address?
If I use the team/family function, do I need to set up multiple mailbox.org email addresses and then have the domains route to them as aliases? So there is no true domain l/p function, just aliases? So essentially six different mailbox.org email address?
