Mail Forwarding and Vacation Reply
Individual users can choose to have their e-mail forwarded to another e-mail account. Users can also choose to have a vacation-reply message that's automatically sent to each person who sends the user an e-mail. This feature is useful when users know they won't be reading or responding to incoming e-mail messages for a period of time.
E-mail Aliases
Each registered user must have a unique username. This username is used to send or recieve e-mail. When a username is already taken by another site. For example, username mary exists and her e-mail goes to mary@domainname.com, you can not add a new user with the same username on a another site, mary@xyz.com.
