The term e-mail forwarding describes an email message being forwarded from a recipient address to a third-party address which isn't mentioned as a recipient. For example, a client sends out an e-mail from their private mailbox to support@domain.com and as far as they're concerned, this is actually the single receiver. If there's an active forwarding, the message might be forwarded to owner@domain.com, for instance, although the customer never meant the email to be sent there and may not be aware about the presence of this mail box. There are several purposes for applying such forwarding. For instance, if you've several email addresses it is easy to forward each of them to a one email address, which will make monitoring email messages easier and will allow you to collect messages and respond to them timely. The function could also be used in case a number of individuals should get a copy of an electronic message delivered to a general mailbox.

E-mail Forwarding in Cloud Web Hosting

If you have a cloud web hosting package with us and you set up email addresses in your account, you'll be able to forward it with only a few mouse clicks to any other address of your preference. The feature can be enabled whenever you set up a new mailbox or at any time later and disabled just as quickly if you change your mind. This can be done with the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel in which you will manage your account. You will also have the option to choose whether a backup of the incoming emails will stay on our servers or not. The main advantage of this feature is you will always have a backup on your server if anything occurs with the other mailbox or if it is not active for reasons unknown during the time an email message is forwarded. If the feature not enabled, an e-mail will be received, forwarded and erased from our servers regardless of whether the remote e-mail address is functioning or not, so it generally is a wise decision to have it active just to be on the safe side.

E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Using a semi-dedicated server plan from us, it takes only a few clicks to forward any emails managed in the account to any third-party email address. It is possible to do that from the feature-rich Email Manager part of the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel and throughout this process you could also decide if a backup of your emails needs to be kept on our servers or not. The last feature is optional, however rather helpful as you will get a copy of your incoming emails, so whether or not anything occurs with the other mailbox, you will not lose any data. You are able to activate or deactivate the forwarding for every email address at any moment and forward the messages to various email addresses if you would like. You will also have the ability to view a listing of all email addresses that are being forwarded as well as where the e-mails are being forwarded to.
