Using Multiple Domain Names
Your Spiffy Store comes with a domain name in the form of yourstore.spiffystores.com and you can create email addresses using this domain name.
You also have the option of adding your own domain names that you have previously registered to your store, so that your store is accessible from a web browser using either your own domain names, or the standard spiffystores.com domain name.
This flexibility also applies to your email addresses. When you create a new email address, either as a mailbox or as a forward, then the same email account name is available as an alias on all the additional domains that you have added to your store.
For example, if you create an email address sales@yourstore.spiffystores.com and you have already added the domain name mynewstore.com.au, then this means that the email address sales@mynewstore.com.au will also exist, and can be used to send and receive mail. Please note that if you have created a mailbox for the sales address, then all email addresses for the sales account refer to the same mailbox, regardless of how many different domain names have been used.
