The term e-mail forwarding describes an e-mail being forwarded from a receiving address towards a third-party address that isn't mentioned as a recipient. For example, a customer sends out an email from their personal mail box to support@domain.com and as much as they're involved, it is the single recipient. If there is an active forwarding, the e-mail could be sent to owner@domain.com, for example, although the customer in no way intended the message to be sent there and might not be aware of the existence of this mailbox. There are numerous reasons for making use of such forwarding. For example, if you've various e-mail addresses it is possible to forward them all to a single mailbox, which will make keeping track of email messages simpler and will permit you to get emails and respond to them in a timely manner. The function could also be used in case a number of people should get a copy of an electronic message delivered to a standard mailbox.

E-mail Forwarding in Cloud Web Hosting

If you have a cloud web hosting plan with us and you set up email addresses inside your account, you will be able to forward it with no more than a couple of mouse clicks to any other address of your choosing. The option can be activated when you make a brand new mailbox or at any time later on and disabled just as quickly any time you change your mind. This is done with the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel where you can manage your account. You will also have the option to decide whether a backup of the inbound messages will remain on our servers or not. The advantage of this feature is basically that you will always have a backup on your end if something occurs with the other email address or maybe it's not active for reasons unknown during the time an email message is forwarded. In case the feature not active, a message will be received, forwarded and erased from our servers regardless of whether the remote email is functioning or not, so it is usually a wise decision to have it active just to be prepared.

E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Servers

Forwarding an e-mail address hosted on our servers will be very easy if you have a semi-dedicated server plan with us and it'll not take you more than several mouse clicks to create. You can do this in the Emails section of the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel and you'll be able to check the mailboxes which are being forwarded and where your emails will be sent with a glance. The option is enabled and disabled for each of the mailboxes inside your account. You could also enable or disable a valuable option we provide - a copy of the e-mails being relayed through our servers can stay on the server. In this way, you will always have a backup of your incoming messages and you will not have to worry about losing any information. In case you keep this feature disabled, you risk losing e-mails if there's an issue with the remote mailbox.
