The term email forwarding describes an email message being forwarded from a receiving address towards a third-party address which isn't mentioned as a receiver. For example, a customer sends an e-mail from their personal mail box to support@domain.com and as far as they are concerned, this is the only recipient. When there is an active forwarding, the e-mail can be forwarded to owner@domain.com, for example, although the customer never intended the email to be sent there and might not be aware of the existence of this mailbox. There are numerous reasons for making use of such forwarding. For instance, if you have various email addresses you're able to forward them all to a sole mailbox, which can make keeping track of email messages less difficult and will allow you to collect emails and respond to them quickly. The function may also be used in case a number of people should receive a copy of an e mail message delivered to a general email address.

E-mail Forwarding in Web Hosting

It is really easy to set up forwarding for just about any email address set up inside a web hosting account with us. You can do this either when you set up a brand new mailbox through your Hepsia Hosting Control Panel, or at any moment later as the forwarding can be enabled and disabled for any current mailbox with a couple of mouse clicks. You can also decide if a backup copy of the incoming messages will be maintained on our servers, a really handy feature. This will be a fail-safe in case that the remote email address is not accessible for some reason, not mentioning you will have always a backup of all your emails. If this option is not enabled for a specific e-mail on our end, an incoming e-mail will be received and sent forward, so no record of it will stay on the server. In case the remote mailbox is down for the moment, you will lose this message.

E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Servers

Forwarding an email address located in our system can be very uncomplicated in case you have a semi-dedicated server plan with our company and it will not require you more than a few mouse clicks to set up. You can do this through the Emails area of the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel and you will be able to keep track of the mailboxes which are being forwarded and where the e-mails will be sent with a glance. The option is enabled and disabled for any of the mailboxes inside your account. You can also enable or disable a useful feature we have - a copy of the messages being sent through our system can remain on the server. In this way, you will also have a backup copy of your incoming e-mail messages and you'll not have to worry about losing any info. In case you have this option disabled, you risk losing e-mails if there's an issue with the remote mailbox.
