The term email forwarding describes an e-mail being forwarded from a recipient address towards a third-party address which is not listed as a recipient. For example, a client sends out an e-mail from their private mailbox to support@domain.com and as much as they are involved, this is the single receiver. If there's an active forwarding, the e-mail can be sent to owner@domain.com, for example, although the customer in no way intended the email 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 example, if you have numerous email addresses it is easy to forward each of them to a sole mailbox, which will make checking e-mails less complicated and allows you to collect e-mails and respond in a timely manner. The feature could also be used in case a number of individuals should get a copy of an e-mail message sent to a standard mailbox.

E-mail Forwarding in Shared Hosting

The Hepsia Control Panel, which comes with all our shared hosting packages, will allow you to forward any e-mail inside the account to an alternative one easily. This can be done either throughout the creation of a brand new email address or at any time afterwards in case you choose that you need this feature. During the process, you will be able to choose if you want a copy of the email messages to be maintained on the server. In this way, you'll have a backup and you will steer clear of the possibility to lose an e-mail message if the forwarding is to an external address, which can be briefly inaccessible. This option can be enabled and deactivated any time, but if you use e-mail for crucial matters, it is far better to use it, since no data of the email messages will be maintained on the server if the option is not enabled. Any time you determine that you do not need forwarding any longer, it takes simply a click to deactivate it.

E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Using a semi-dedicated server plan through us, it requires a few mouse clicks to forward any of your emails managed in the account to any third-party mailbox. You are able to do this in the feature-rich Email Manager area of the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel and during the process you can also choose if a backup of your email messages should be maintained on our servers or not. The last feature is optional, but helpful as you will get a copy of your inbound messages, so whether or not something occurs with the other email address, you won't lose any data. You're able to activate or disable the forwarding for every email address whenever you want and forward the messages to a number of email addresses if you need. You will also be able to check out a listing of all of the mailboxes that are being forwarded as well as where the emails are being forwarded to.
