Never met anyone using aliases, which doesn't mean it's not allowed or possible. But most Germans that opt for web.de do so because the domain is so neat and short, so they don't really care for aliases.

Using a proxy I once found myself on an Austrian IP, I was already tempted to sign up for GMX or Web but then felt like providing an outdated address was just not worth the hassle and worries about them shutting down the mailbox eventually in case they'd find out I had left Germany back in 2008.
