Add or remove email aliases for groups

As an administrator, you can add alternate email addresses, called email aliases, to your organization’s groups. For example, if there’s a group email for support@your-domain.com, you can add help@your-domain.com as an email alias to make sure questions from customers reach the right place. Or, if your organization has more than one domain, you can add an alias with a different domain to a group.

Note: Currently, you can't search for a group by its alias.
