Abstract
Systems and methods of managing alias are disclosed. An alias management system can provide for creating distribution lists comprising one or more addresses. A list owner can utilize the system to retain ownership and control of the addresses by creating aliases for the list. Additionally, an alias policy can be established that includes rules and metrics that govern the use of the alias. The alias can be provided to alias users or members of a message distribution chain, preferably in exchange for a fee. The alias users can then use the alias to send message content, while the system can enforce the alias usage policy or provide an auditing trail on how the alias is used.
