Enabling and Disabling Email alias
Idea shared by Pusparaj Raut - 6/13/2026 at 8:48 PM
Completed
Hi , 

We would like to request or get suggestions regarding email alias management.

Is there any recommended way to enable or disable email aliases temporarily without deleting them? If not, we would like to request a feature in SmarterMail to allow enable/disable control for email aliases.

This would be very helpful for managing group or shared aliases that are only needed at certain times.

Hi, Pusparaj

I would be happy to add this as a feature request. At this time, when an alias is created it's enabled and the only way to "disable" it is to delete the alias.

Hi Derek,

Thank you for considering this and for adding it as a feature request. Much appreciated.

Hi Derek,
We can now enable and disable aliases in Build 9735. This feature is working as expected.
Thanks for adding this functionality.

Just wanted to add this for others looking for this feature. 

Build 9735 (Aug 27, 2026)
IMPORTANT: App Passwords were regenerated to a new security scheme. Anyone using App Passwords created prior to Build 9735 will need to enter a new App Password in order to use any 2FA-enabled account in a desktop or mobile client.
Added: [HA] [HUB] Force 2FA for new Cluster Administrators.
Added: Aliases can now be enabled or disabled.
