Assign an Alias from Another User

When you assign an alias to a user, you move a third-party alias from another user to the user you are currently viewing. You cannot assign or reassign Enterprise aliases.

Note: If a user has only one alias and you assign that last alias to another user, the system will delete the user account, and the Favorites folder, personal categories, and inbox for that account.

To assign an alias from another user

  1. Go to the Users and Groups management area of the CMC.
  2. Select the user you want to assign an alias to.
  3. Click Manage, Properties.

    The Properties dialog displays.

  4. Click Assign Alias.
  5. Enter the user account that has the alias you want to assign, then click Find Now.
  6. Move the alias you want to assign from the Available aliases list to the Aliases to be added to Username list.

    Here, Username represents the name of the user you are assigning an alias to.

    Note: To select multiple aliases, use the SHIFT + click or CTRL + click combination.

  7. Click OK.
