The term e-mail forwarding describes a message being forwarded from a receiving address towards a third-party address which is not mentioned as a receiver. For example, a customer sends out an email from their private mailbox to support@domain.com and as much as they're concerned, this is actually the only recipient. If there is an active forwarding, the message may be forwarded to owner@domain.com, for instance, even though the customer never meant the message to be sent there and might not be aware about the presence of this mailbox. There are different purposes for applying such forwarding. For example, if you have numerous e-mail addresses you'll be able to forward each of them to a sole email address, which can make checking e-mails less difficult and allows you to get e-mails and respond to them on time. The function could also be used in case a number of individuals should get a copy of an e-mail message sent to a standard mail box.
E-mail Forwarding in Web Hosting
The Hepsia Control Panel, that comes with all our web hosting plans, will help you to forward any email inside the account to another one without any difficulty. You can do this either throughout the creation of a brand new mailbox or whenever you want afterwards if you choose that you require this feature. During the process, you'll be able to consider if you prefer a duplicate of the emails to be maintained on the server. This way, you will have a backup and you will prevent the possibility to lose an e-mail if the forwarding is to an exterior address, which can be temporarily unavailable. This feature can be enabled and deactivated at any time, and when you use email messages for critical matters, it is better to use it, as no data of the email messages will be kept on the server if the option is not enabled. Any time you determine that you do not need forwarding any more, it takes just a mouse click to deactivate it.
