The term email forwarding refers to a message being forwarded from a receiving address towards a third-party address that isn't listed as a receiver. For instance, a customer sends out an e-mail from their private mail box to support@domain.com and as far as they are involved, this is actually the single recipient. If there is an active forwarding, the e-mail could be sent to owner@domain.com, for instance, even though the customer in no way meant the message to be sent there and may not be aware of the presence of this mail box. There are numerous reasons for working with such forwarding. For example, if you've got several email addresses it is easy to forward them all to a one mailbox, which can make monitoring email messages easier and allows you to collect emails and respond to them promptly. The function can also be used if a number of individuals should get a copy of an e-mail message delivered to a standard mailbox.

E-mail Forwarding in Website Hosting

You'll be able to forward any email address hosted through our system to another one or more third-party addresses without any difficulty if you've got a website hosting plan with our company. The option can be activated and disabled from the Emails section of the Hepsia Control Panel at any moment and you will be able to see an index of all emails where your correspondence will be sent to. Additionally, you will have the option to keep a duplicate of the inbound communications on the server and have a backup in case that you remove anything from the remote email address. This option can also be quite beneficial if there's a brief downtime with the other email address. As long as it is activated so we make a copy of all of the e-mails being relayed through our servers, you will not risk sacrificing e-mails.

E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you have a semi-dedicated server from our company, you will need simply a couple of clicks inside the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Hosting Control Panel to forward any of the e-mails configured on our end to a third-party address. In the same section you will additionally have the ability to see how many of your email addresses are forwarded and exactly where the incoming messages are sent. It is possible to enable or deactivate a forwarding account whenever you want and throughout the process you may also decide if a copy of the messages needs to be maintained on our servers or not. Even though this option isn't a requirement, it's handy as you will get a backup copy of the messages on our end in the event that something occurs with the third-party mailbox. Even when they have only a temporary issue, you risk losing e-mails as once our server receives and forwards a message, nothing will be maintained on our end unless you chosen a backup to be maintained.
