The term e-mail forwarding refers to an e-mail being forwarded from a recipient address towards a third-party address that isn't listed as a receiver. For example, a client sends an email from their personal mailbox to support@domain.com and as much as they are involved, this is actually the only recipient. If there is an active forwarding, the e-mail can be forwarded to owner@domain.com, for example, even though the customer never meant the e-mail to be sent there and may not be aware about the existence of this mailbox. There are numerous reasons for using such forwarding. For example, if you've a number of e-mail addresses you're able to forward all of them to a sole mailbox, which can make monitoring e-mails simpler and will allow you to get messages and respond to them on time. The feature may also be used in case a number of individuals should receive a copy of an e-mail message delivered to a general mail box.

E-mail Forwarding in Shared Website Hosting

If you have a shared website hosting package with our company and you create an e-mail address inside your account, you'll be able to forward it with only a few clicks to another e-mail address of your choice. The option can be activated when you create a new mailbox or whenever you want later on and deactivated just as quickly if you change your mind. This can be done with the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel in which you can handle your account. Additionally, you will have the option to choose whether a copy of the inbound messages will stay on our servers or not. The main benefit of this option is you will always have a backup on your end if something happens with the other mailbox or if perhaps it is not active for some reason during the time an email is forwarded. In case the option is not enabled, a message will be received, forwarded and erased from our system even if the remote email address is functioning or not, so it can be quite a good idea for it to be active just to be on the safe side.

E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Servers

The feature-rich Email Manager interface inside the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel, which will come with all our semi-dedicated hosting plan, will enable you to forward any email address you make in the account to one or a number of other addresses with no more than several clicks. You'll be able to view a listing of all mailboxes you have, those that are forwarded and also where they are forwarded to. Email forwarding can be activated and deactivated at any time and you can now also select whether a copy of the inbound email messages must be maintained on our servers or not. Though this option is optional, it may be far easier once you take advantage of it, because you will get a copy of your messages if there's some kind of trouble with the remote email server. Regardless of whether there's a temporary issue and no emails are lost on our system, you may still not get a forwarded e-mail in the event it was sent by our servers during the downtime.
