Do I need a new Zendesk support email for each external address?

No, you don't need a new Zendesk support email for each external address. You can forward all external emails to a single Zendesk support address, like[email protected], where 'subdomain' is your account's name.

This setup allows you to manage multiple external email addresses through one Zendesk support address, simplifying your email management. However, Zendesk does recommend creating a separate Zendesk support address for each forwarded account, depending on your specific use case. For more details, check out the originalZendesk article.
