The term e-mail forwarding refers to an email being forwarded from a recipient address towards a third-party address which isn't listed as a recipient. For example, a client sends an e-mail from their personal mail box to support@domain.com and as much as they're involved, this is actually the single receiver. If there is an active forwarding, the message may be sent to owner@domain.com, for instance, although the customer in no way intended the email to be sent there and might not be aware about the presence of this mailbox. There are various purposes for applying such forwarding. For instance, if you've numerous email addresses you can forward each of them to a one mailbox, which can make checking e-mails easier and will allow you to collect messages and respond to them promptly. The function can also be used if a number of individuals should receive a copy of an e mail message sent to a standard mailbox.

E-mail Forwarding in Web Hosting

It really is easy to set up forwarding for just about any email configured inside a web hosting account from us. This can be achieved either while you set up a new e-mail address via your Hepsia Hosting Control Panel, or at any time later since the forwarding may be enabled and disabled for any current email address with just a couple of clicks. You can also choose if a backup copy of the inbound emails will be kept on our servers, a very valuable option. This will be a fail-safe in case that the remote email address is not available for some cause, not mentioning that you'll always have a copy of all your messages. If this feature is not enabled for a given email address on our end, an incoming message will be received and sent forward, so zero record of it will remain on our server. When the remote email address is unavailable temporarily, you will lose this email.

E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you have a semi-dedicated server through us, it will take you a few mouse clicks in the Email Manager part of your Hepsia Hosting Control Panel to forward any of the emails created on our server to a third-party address. In the same section you will additionally have the ability to see how many of your email addresses are forwarded and exactly where the incoming emails are sent. You're able to enable or deactivate a forwarding account at any moment and throughout the process you may as well choose if a backup copy of the messages should be maintained on our servers or not. Even if this feature is not a necessity, it is quite helpful since you will have a backup copy of the messages on our end just in case that anything occurs with the third-party mailbox. Even if they've got a momentary problem, you risk losing e-mails as when our server gets and forwards an email, nothing will be kept on our end if you haven’t chosen a copy to be maintained.
