The term e-mail forwarding describes a message being forwarded from a recipient address to a third-party address that's not listed as a recipient. For instance, a customer sends out an e-mail from their personal mail box to support@domain.com and as far as they are concerned, this is the single recipient. When there is an active forwarding, the e-mail might be forwarded to owner@domain.com, for instance, although the customer never meant the e-mail to be sent there and might not be aware about the presence of this mailbox. There are several purposes for applying such forwarding. For example, if you have numerous e-mail addresses you can forward them all to a single mail box, which will make keeping track of emails simpler and will allow you to get emails and respond to them timely. The function could also be used in case a number of people should get a copy of an e mail message delivered to a standard mail box.

E-mail Forwarding in Shared Hosting

The Hepsia Control Panel, which is provided with all of our shared hosting packages, will allow you to forward any e-mail address inside the account to an alternative one easily. You can do this either throughout the creation of a new mailbox or any time later on in case you choose that you'll need this function. During the process, you are able to decide if you prefer a duplicate of the messages to be kept on the server. This way, you will have a backup and you'll steer clear of the probability to lose a message if the forwarding is to an external address, that's briefly unavailable. This option can be activated and deactivated at any time, but if you use emails for essential matters, it is best to use it, because no data of the email messages will be kept on the server in case the option is not active. Any time you decide that you don't need forwarding anymore, it will take just a click to disable it.
