The term email forwarding refers to an e-mail message being forwarded from a recipient address towards a third-party address which isn't listed as a recipient. For instance, a customer sends an e-mail from their private mailbox to support@domain.com and as far as they're concerned, this is the single receiver. If there's an active forwarding, the message might be sent to owner@domain.com, for example, although the customer in no way intended the e-mail to be sent there and might not be aware of the existence of this mail box. There are numerous purposes for working with such forwarding. For example, if you've many email addresses you can forward all of them to a sole email address, which can make monitoring emails simpler and will permit you to get emails and respond in a timely manner. The feature may also be used in case a number of individuals should receive a copy of an electronic message sent to a general mail box.

E-mail Forwarding in Shared Website Hosting

If you have a shared website hosting package with us and you create email addresses inside your account, you will be able to forward it with just a couple of clicks to any other address of your choosing. The feature can be activated whenever you set up a new email address or any time afterwards and deactivated just as quickly in case you change your mind. This can be done through the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel where you will control your account. You'll have the option to choose whether a duplicate of the inbound messages will remain on our servers or not. The main benefit of this option is you will always have a copy on your end if anything occurs with the other email address or if it's not active for reasons unknown during the time a message is forwarded. If the feature not enabled, an email will be received, forwarded and erased from our system no matter if the remote e-mail is operating or not, so it is actually a wise decision for it to be active just to be prepared.

E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Servers

With a semi-dedicated server plan from us, it takes only a few clicks to forward any emails managed in the account to a third-party mailbox. It is possible to do this from the feature-rich Email Manager section of the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel and throughout the process you can also decide if a backup of your email messages must be kept on our servers or not. The aforementioned feature is optional, but helpful since you will get a copy of your inbound e-mails, so whether or not anything happens with the other email address, you simply will not lose any info. It is easy to enable or deactivate the forwarding for any email address whenever you want and forward the e-mails to multiple email addresses if you wish. You will also be capable to see a list of all email addresses that are now being forwarded and exactly where the e-mails are being forwarded to.
