This guide explains how to create variants of your normal email address. You can change what comes before the @ sign. For example, john-peter.smith@example.com is a long address which can be shortened and used like this: jps@example.com (in this case an alias "jps" needs to be created on the address "john-peter.smith").

To change what comes after the @, alias domains need to be used (find out more).
