Please add an email "alias" button or email "nickname" button on the email account list page
Reason: Everyone who has used plesk, like myself, is familiar with the alias button under email. A lot of people are searching for it, a lot of time is wasted answering these people to use a forwarding. And honestly, your forwarding as the only solution is lame duck.
Where to add: Add the button or link "inside" an email entry.. Click on an existing email like bob@mydomain.com. Inside you see the link (or button) add an email nick name. Click on the button and it will ask for the nick name [ ]@mydomain.com
How will it function: when you submit your alias or nick name, it will call the forwarding script, from and to are known.. it will add the new forwarding onto the forwarding list and display the list of forwarding as it does now.
Why: it's faster than entering all that information that shouldn't have to be entered. Gives an answer to the question where is the email aliasing. Fixes the documentation because it gives an answer to how forwarding is used in practice by a feature people are familiar with.
Coding difficulty: about a 2, the email address being associated is already called, the script can be copied and cludged or tapped. posting would require same exact steps as the forwarding script calls for.
I am not sure that I fully understand your request, so I apologize if I have misunderstood it. From what I've read of your post, you're simply looking for a new button to be added on the "Email Account List" page within the cPanel UI. This would be similar to where the existing buttons for changing each email account's password and quota exist.
You are requesting that the button be named either "Create Alias" or "Create Nickname" or something similar, and that it be some form of shortcut or means of adding what cPanel refers to as an email forward address.
Is this accurate? If not, please do provide further information on this so that we can better understand this request.
