The term email forwarding describes a message being forwarded from a recipient address to a third-party address that is not mentioned as a recipient. For example, a customer sends an email from their personal mail box to support@domain.com and as much as they are involved, this is actually the only receiver. When there is an active forwarding, the message may be sent to owner@domain.com, for example, even though the customer in no way meant the message to be sent there and may not be aware about the existence of this mailbox. There are different purposes for using such forwarding. For example, if you've numerous email addresses it is possible to forward each of them to a sole mail box, which will make checking emails easier and allows you to collect messages and respond to them on time. The function can also be used if a number of people should get a copy of an e mail message delivered to a general mailbox.
E-mail Forwarding in Shared Hosting
The Hepsia Control Panel, which is provided with all our shared hosting packages, will help you forward any e-mail address inside the account to another one easily. This can be done either during the creation of a new mailbox or any time later on if you decide that you will need this function. During the process, you will be able to decide if you prefer a duplicate of the email messages to be kept on the server. This way, you will have a backup and you will prevent the probability to lose an email if the forwarding is to an outside address, which is momentarily unavailable. This feature can be activated and deactivated whenever you want, and when you use email messages for crucial matters, it is best to use it, because no data of the e-mails will be maintained on the server when the option is not enabled. In case you determine that you don't need forwarding anymore, it takes simply a mouse click to disable it.
E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Servers
The feature-rich Email Manager tool within the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel, which comes with all the semi-dedicated hosting plan, will help you to forward any email address you set up in the account to one particular or several additional addresses with only a number of clicks. You will also be able to view a number of all email addresses that you have, those that are forwarded as well as exactly where they are forwarded to. E-mail forwarding can be enabled and disabled at any moment and you can also decide on whether a copy of the inbound email messages must be kept on our servers or not. Though this option is not essential, it may be easier once you take advantage of it, as you will have a copy of your messages when there is some kind of trouble with the remote email server. Regardless of whether there's a momentary issue and no email messages are lost on our servers, you may still not get a forwarded email if it was relayed by our servers throughout the downtime.
