The term email forwarding describes an email being forwarded from a receiving address to a third-party address which isn't mentioned as a receiver. For example, a client sends out an e-mail from their private mailbox to support@domain.com and as far as they are concerned, this is actually the only recipient. When there is an active forwarding, the e-mail may be sent to owner@domain.com, for example, even though the customer in no way meant the e-mail to be sent there and might not be aware about the presence of this mail box. There are different purposes for using such forwarding. For example, if you have many e-mail addresses it is possible to forward them all to a one email address, which can make monitoring email messages simpler and will permit you to get e-mails and respond in a timely manner. The function could also be used if a number of individuals should receive a copy of an electronic message sent to a standard mailbox.

E-mail Forwarding in Web Hosting

If you have a web hosting plan with our company and you set up an email address in your account, you are able to forward it with just a couple of clicks to another e-mail address of your preference. The option can be activated whenever you create a brand new email address or at any time later on and disabled just as quickly any time 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 decide if a backup of the incoming messages will remain on our servers or not. The main benefit of this feature is you will always have a copy on your server if something occurs with the other email address or if it's not active for reasons unknown at the time an email is forwarded. When the feature not enabled, an e-mail will be received, forwarded and erased from our servers no matter if the remote email address is functioning or not, so it generally is a good idea for it to be active just to be prepared.

E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Servers

The feature-rich Email Manager interface in the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel, which comes with all our Linux semi-dedicated service, will help you to forward any email address that you create with the account to one particular or many different addresses with no more than several mouse clicks. You'll be capable to see a number of all of the mailboxes that you've got, those that are forwarded and where they are forwarded to. This feature can be enabled and disabled whenever you want and you can now also select whether a backup of the incoming emails ought to be kept on our system or not. Although this feature is not essential, it may be more convenient once you make the most of it, as you will get a backup of the e-mails if there is any kind of trouble with the remote mail server. Even when there is a short-term issue and no email messages are lost on our system, you might still not receive a forwarded e-mail if it was sent by our servers throughout the downtime.
