										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p class="has-large-font-size">In recent months, we&#8217;ve seen a troubling trend in the European hosting and email market: more and more formerly independent providers are being acquired by international corporations &#8211; with noticeable consequences for users. One of the most striking developments is the widespread shift to Microsoft 365, often imposed without real choice.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading has-huge-font-size"><img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f6a8.png" alt="🚨" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> What’s Happening?</h3>



<p class="has-large-font-size">A concrete example: After Host Europe and DomainFactory were acquired by the U.S. corporation GoDaddy, many services were migrated to Microsoft-based platforms. For countless users, this meant:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li class="has-large-font-size">Loss of familiar features and user interfaces</li>



<li class="has-large-font-size">Forced migration into a U.S.-centric ecosystem</li>



<li class="has-large-font-size">Higher costs for services that were previously affordable or even free</li>



<li class="has-large-font-size">Privacy concerns due to cloud storage outside the EU</li>



<li class="has-large-font-size">This shift is not only technically questionable &#8211; it also undermines the digital sovereignty of European users.</li>
</ul>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading has-huge-font-size"><img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f6e1.png" alt="🛡" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> Privacy Requires Independence</h3>



<p class="has-large-font-size">Especially when it comes to email, trust is essential. Anyone handling sensitive communication should be able to rely on their data not being analyzed, shared, or used for advertising. The transition to Microsoft 365 introduces precisely these risks &#8211; particularly for businesses, freelancers, and organizations with elevated privacy requirements.</p>

<p class="has-large-font-size">We are delighted to introduce our latest privacy-friendly innovation: disabling login with alias addresses and custom sender names for alias addresses.</p>



<p class="has-large-font-size">At eclipso Mail &amp; Cloud, it&#8217;s not just about sending and receiving emails; our platform was designed to protect your privacy and make online communication more secure, flexible, and personalized.</p>



<p class="has-large-font-size"><strong>Why eclipso Mail &amp; Cloud?</strong></p>



<p class="has-large-font-size">In a world where safeguarding your personal data takes precedence, and personal identity plays an increasingly crucial role in digital communication, it is essential for email service providers to offer innovative solutions.</p>



<p class="has-large-font-size">In this article, we will delve into the two new features.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-resized"><img decoding="async" src="https://www.eclipso.de/blog/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/2023.10.10-alias-allow-login-600x600.png" alt="" class="wp-image-3176" style="object-fit:cover;width:670px;height:670px" width="670" height="670" srcset="https://www.eclipso.de/blog/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/2023.10.10-alias-allow-login-600x600.png 600w, https://www.eclipso.de/blog/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/2023.10.10-alias-allow-login-300x300.png 300w, https://www.eclipso.de/blog/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/2023.10.10-alias-allow-login-200x200.png 200w, https://www.eclipso.de/blog/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/2023.10.10-alias-allow-login-768x768.png 768w, https://www.eclipso.de/blog/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/2023.10.10-alias-allow-login-50x50.png 50w, https://www.eclipso.de/blog/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/2023.10.10-alias-allow-login-80x80.png 80w, https://www.eclipso.de/blog/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/2023.10.10-alias-allow-login-512x512.png 512w, https://www.eclipso.de/blog/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/2023.10.10-alias-allow-login.png 1080w" sizes="(max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px" /></figure>



<p></p>



<p class="has-large-font-size"><strong>**1. &#8220;Disable Login with Alias Address&#8221; – Focus on Data Privacy**</strong></p>



<p class="has-large-font-size">We have introduced a groundbreaking feature that elevates your online privacy to a new level: &#8220;Disable Login with Alias Address.&#8221; But what does this mean, and why is it so important?</p>



<p class="has-large-font-size"><strong>* **What is an Alias Address?**</strong> An alias address is an alternative email address linked to your main account, often used to receive emails without disclosing your main email address.</p>



<p class="has-large-font-size"><strong>* **Why is Disabling Important?**</strong> By disabling login for alias addresses, you ensure that no one can access your account by logging in with an alias address, enhancing your security and protecting your data from unauthorized access.</p>



<p class="has-large-font-size"><strong>* **Flexibility and Control:**</strong> You can enable or disable this feature at any time in your account settings, providing you with the flexibility to customize account security to your preferences.</p>



<p class="has-large-font-size"><strong>**2. Custom Sender Names for Alias Addresses – Your Personal Touch**</strong></p>



<p class="has-large-font-size">In addition to the data privacy feature &#8220;<strong>Disable Login with Alias Address</strong>&#8220;, we have also introduced the ability to <strong>&#8220;Set custom sender names for each alias address individually&#8221;</strong>. What does this mean for you?</p>



<p class="has-large-font-size"><strong>* **Personalization:**</strong> You can now personalize your emails with custom sender names, adding a personal touch to your communication and enabling you to express yourself optimally in different contexts.</p>



<p class="has-large-font-size"><strong>* **Enhanced Professionalism:**</strong> Especially in business emails, setting a custom sender name can boost your professionalism and credibility.</p>



<p class="has-large-font-size"><strong>* **Multiple Identities:**</strong> By using alias addresses and custom sender names, you can now manage various online identities centrally with just one email account.</p>



<p class="has-large-font-size"><strong>**3. How to Activate the New Alias Features?**</strong></p>



<p class="has-large-font-size">Activating the new alias features is straightforward. Simply go to your account settings (desktop version) > Email | Aliases and select the desired options. In a few steps, you can enhance your security and personalize your emails.</p>



<p class="has-large-font-size">For newly created alias addresses, login is already disabled by default.</p>
