A method and system for managing emails in an email account of a receiver are disclosed. The email account is associated with a primary email id created by the receiver. The receiver can assign virtual secondary email ids based on an alias without accessing any communication system. The alias associates the secondary email id with the primary email id. After an email is received at the secondary email id, the email is stored into a folder in the email account based on the secondary email id automatically. According to an embodiment, an email is received at the secondary email id from a group email id. The system identifies the primary email id from the secondary email id and creates, a target folder in the email account based on the group email id. Another unique feature of the invention includes safeguarding the primary email id by using the 'alias'.
