The term email forwarding refers to an email being forwarded from a receiving address towards a third-party address that's not listed as a receiver. For example, a client sends an e-mail from their personal mailbox to support@domain.com and as far as they're involved, this is the single receiver. If there is an active forwarding, the e-mail can be forwarded to owner@domain.com, for instance, even though the customer in no way meant the email to be sent there and might not be aware about the existence of this mail box. There are numerous reasons for using such forwarding. For example, if you've got various email addresses it is possible to forward each of them to a single mail box, which will make monitoring emails less complicated and allows you to receive emails and respond on time. The function can also be used if a number of individuals should receive a copy of an electronic message sent to a standard email address.

E-mail Forwarding in Shared Website Hosting

In case you have a shared website hosting package with our company and you set up e-mail addresses inside your account, you are able to forward it with no more than a couple of mouse clicks to another e-mail address of your preference. The feature can be enabled whenever you make a new email address or at any time later on and disabled just as quickly in case you change your mind. This is done from the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel in which you will control your account. You'll have the option to choose if a duplicate of the inbound messages will remain on our servers or not. The advantage of this option is that you will always have a backup on your end if something occurs with the other email address or if it is not active for reasons unknown during the time a message is forwarded. If the option is not active, an email will be received, forwarded and deleted from our system regardless of whether the remote email address is operating or not, so it is usually a good idea for it to be enabled just to be prepared.

E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Servers

The feature-rich Email Manager interface inside the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel, which will come with all the semi-dedicated server, will allow you to forward any email that you create with the account to one or a number of different addresses with only a handful of mouse clicks. You'll be able to view a set of all email addresses that you've got, those that are forwarded and where they're forwarded to. This feature can be activated and deactivated at any moment and you can additionally decide on if a backup of the inbound e-mails must be kept on our system or not. Even though this option is optional, it could be easier when you make the most of it, because you will possess a backup of the emails if there's some trouble with the remote email server. Even if there's a short-term problem and no emails are lost on our servers, you may still not receive a forwarded e-mail in case it was sent by our servers during the downtime.
