The term email forwarding describes an email message being forwarded from a receiving address to a third-party address that is not listed as a receiver. For instance, a customer sends an e-mail from their private mailbox to support@domain.com and as much as they're involved, this is the only receiver. If there's an active forwarding, the email might be sent to owner@domain.com, for example, even though the customer in no way intended the e-mail to be sent there and may not be aware of the existence of this mailbox. There are various purposes for working with such forwarding. For instance, if you've got various email addresses you're able to forward each of them to a one mailbox, which will make checking email messages less difficult and allows you to collect messages and respond timely. The feature can also be used if a number of individuals should get a copy of an email message delivered to a standard email address.
E-mail Forwarding in Shared Hosting
If you have a shared hosting plan with us and you create an e-mail address inside your account, you'll be able to forward it with only a few clicks to another address of your choosing. The option can be enabled whenever you create a brand new mailbox or whenever you want later on and disabled just as easily in case you change your mind. This can be done with the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel in which you will manage your account. In addition, you will have the option to choose whether a backup of the inbound emails will stay on our servers or not. The main benefit of this feature is basically that you will always have a copy on your end if anything occurs with the other mailbox or if it's not active for reasons unknown during the time an email message is forwarded. If the option is not active, an e-mail will be received, forwarded and deleted from our system no matter if the remote e-mail is working or not, so it is actually a wise decision for it to be active just to be on the safe side.
E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Servers
With a semi-dedicated server package through us, it requires just a few mouse clicks to forward any email addresses managed from the account to any third-party mailbox. You will be able to get this done in the feature-rich Email Manager area of the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel and during the task you can also choose if a copy of your email messages needs to be kept on our servers or not. The last feature is optional, but rather valuable because you will get a copy of your incoming messages, so even if anything happens with the other mailbox, you will not lose any data. It is easy to activate or deactivate the forwarding for just about any email address at any time and forward the e-mails to several email addresses if you would like. You'll have the ability to check out a list of all of the mailboxes that are now being forwarded as well as where the e-mails are being forwarded to.
