The term email forwarding describes an email message being forwarded from a receiving address to a third-party address that's not mentioned as a receiver. For instance, a customer sends an email from their personal mailbox to support@domain.com and as far as they're involved, this is the only recipient. If there's an active forwarding, the email may be forwarded to owner@domain.com, for example, even though the customer in no way meant the e-mail to be sent there and might not be aware of the presence of this mail box. There are several purposes for using such forwarding. For instance, if you have numerous e-mail addresses you'll be able to forward all of them to a sole email address, which can make keeping track of emails less complicated and will permit you to receive e-mails and respond to them on time. The function could also be used in case a number of people should get a copy of an e mail message sent to a general mail box.

E-mail Forwarding in Hosting

If you have a hosting package with our company and you set up an email address in your account, you are able to forward it with no more than a couple of mouse clicks to another address of your choice. The option can be enabled when you make a brand new email address or whenever you want later on and disabled just as quickly if you change your mind. This is done through the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel in which you can control your account. You'll have the option to decide whether a backup of the incoming e-mails will stay on our servers or not. The advantage of this feature is basically that you will always have a backup on your server if anything occurs with the other email address or maybe if it is not active for reasons unknown at the time an e-mail is forwarded. In case the feature not enabled, a message will be received, forwarded and deleted from our system no matter if the remote email is operating or not, so it is usually a good idea to have it active just to be on the safe side.

E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Using a semi-dedicated server plan from our company, it takes just a few clicks to forward one of your email addresses managed from the account to any third-party mailbox. You are able to do this through the feature-rich Email Manager area of the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel and throughout this process you could also decide if a copy of your emails must be kept on our servers or not. The aforementioned feature is optional, yet helpful as you will have a backup of your incoming e-mails, so whether or not something happens with the other mailbox, you will not lose any information. You'll be able to activate or deactivate the forwarding for any email address whenever you want and forward the emails to multiple addresses if you wish. Additionally, you will have the ability to view a listing of all mailboxes that are now being forwarded and also exactly where the e-mails are being forwarded to.
