The term e-mail forwarding describes an email message being forwarded from a receiving address to a third-party address that is not listed as a recipient. For example, a customer sends out an e-mail from their private mail box to support@domain.com and as far as they are involved, it is the single recipient. If there is an active forwarding, the e-mail can be sent to owner@domain.com, for example, even though the customer never meant the e-mail to be sent there and may not be aware about the existence of this mail box. There are several purposes for working with such forwarding. For example, if you've got many email addresses it is easy to forward all of them to a single mailbox, which will make keeping track of e-mails less difficult and will allow you to receive e-mails and respond promptly. The feature may also be used in case a number of individuals should get a copy of an electronic message delivered to a general email address.

E-mail Forwarding in Website Hosting

The Hepsia Control Panel, that comes with all of our website hosting packages, will allow you to forward any e-mail inside the account to a second one effortlessly. You can do this either during the creation of a new email address or any time later if you choose that you'll need this feature. During the process, you are able to consider if you prefer a backup of the messages to be maintained on the server. This way, you will have a backup and you will avoid the probability to lose an email if the forwarding is to an exterior address, that's temporarily unavailable. This option can be activated and disabled at any time, but if you use emails for essential matters, it is best to use it, as no records of the e-mails are kept on the server if the option is not active. Any time you determine that you don't need forwarding anymore, it will take just a click to disable it.
