How do I list email alias on iPhone?

Is there a way to put my email alias into my email accounts on my iPhone 5s so when I want to send an email and/or replay to one I can use one of my alias?

iPhone 5s, iOS 9.3.2

Hey there schoodle!


From your post, it looks like you have an email alias that you want as an option when sending/receiving message in the Mail app. With an iCloud email alias, that is something that can be done by tapping the Cc/Bcc line in any email you compose, as long as your iCloud mail is on.

See: Using your @icloud.com email address - Apple Support

Send email from your @icloud.com address

Open Mail and start a new email:

  • If you only have an @icloud.com address and don't have any iCloud email aliases, it will appear in the Cc/Bcc, From field on your iOS device or the From field on your Mac and iCloud.com.
  • If you have multiple email addresses, you might need to select your @icloud.com address:
    • iOS: Tap Cc/Bcc, From, tap From, then choose your @icloud.com address.
    • OS X: Choose your @icloud.com address from the From menu.
    • iCloud.com: Click CC/Bcc From, then choose your @icloud.com address from the From menu.

Then complete your email and send it.

And then you can setup as the default iCloud account for sending as well:

Make an @icloud.com address your default sending and receiving address

To make your @icloud.com address the default for sending and receiving email from iCloud, follow the steps below for each of your devices.

iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

  1. Go to Settings > iCloud. In iOS 7 or earlier, tap Settings > iCloud > Account.
  2. Tap Mail under Advanced.
  3. Under iCloud Account Information, tap your email address.
  4. Tap the @icloud.com email address that you want to use as the default for sending mail from iCloud Mail.


Cheers!

Tim's instructions were very helpful, but only for my @icloud account. I have several aliases set up there and they show up on my iPhone as being available to use.


However, what if the aliases I want to use on my iPhone are pointing to a different email account that's not hosted on an Apple server (so not @iCloud, @me, or @mac)?


I have this other permanent email address hosted on GoDaddy which points to a server owned by a friend in the UK. My friend recently said the permanent email address he's hosting for me is getting a ton of spam, which he filters a great deal of so I never see it. Still, he recommended I set up some aliases for it too. So, now I have these:


shopping@..........com

forums@..........com


I also have 3 others. All 5 are set up on my Mac Mini and my MBA, but I can't figure out how to make them show up on my iPhone too. Is there a way?
