The term email forwarding describes a message being forwarded from a recipient address towards a third-party address that's not listed as a recipient. For example, a customer sends an email from their personal mail box to support@domain.com and as much as they're involved, this is the single receiver. If there is an active forwarding, the message may be forwarded to owner@domain.com, for example, even though the customer never meant the e-mail to be sent there and might not be aware about the existence of this mail box. There are various purposes for using such forwarding. For instance, if you've got numerous email addresses you're able to forward each of them to a sole mail box, which will make monitoring emails easier and will permit you to collect messages and respond promptly. The function could also be used if a number of individuals should receive a copy of an e mail message delivered to a standard email address.
E-mail Forwarding in Website Hosting
The Hepsia Control Panel, that is provided with all the website hosting packages, will help you to forward any e-mail in the account to an alternative one without difficulty. You can do this either during the creation of a new email address or at any time later on in case you choose that you'll need this feature. During the process, you'll be able to choose if you prefer a copy of the emails to be kept on the server. In this way, you will have a backup and you will avoid the possibility to lose an e-mail message if the forwarding is to an outside address, that's temporarily unavailable. This option can be activated and disabled whenever you want, but if you use emails for crucial matters, it is advisable to use it, since no data of the emails will be maintained on the server when the option is not enabled. If you determine that you do not need forwarding anymore, it takes just a mouse click to disable it.
