The term email forwarding describes an e-mail being forwarded from a recipient address to a third-party address that's not mentioned as a recipient. For instance, a customer sends out an email from their personal mailbox to support@domain.com and as much as they're concerned, it is the single recipient. When there is an active forwarding, the e-mail may be sent to owner@domain.com, for example, although the customer in no way meant the message to be sent there and might not be aware of the existence of this mailbox. There are various reasons for working with such forwarding. For example, if you've got numerous e-mail addresses it is possible to forward each of them to a single email address, which will make keeping track of e-mails less complicated and allows you to receive messages and respond to them quickly. The function can also be used if a number of people should receive a copy of an e mail message delivered to a general mailbox.

E-mail Forwarding in Shared Hosting

If you have a shared hosting plan with our company and you create an e-mail address inside your account, you'll be able to forward it with just a couple of mouse clicks to any other e-mail address of your choice. The option can be activated whenever you set up a brand new mailbox or at any time later on and disabled just as quickly any time you change your mind. This is done through the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel where you can handle your account. You will also have the option to choose whether a backup of the inbound e-mails will remain on our servers or not. The main benefit of this feature is that you will always have a backup on your end if anything occurs with the other mailbox or maybe it's not active for some reason at the time an email is forwarded. In case the feature not active, an e-mail will be received, forwarded and deleted from our system no matter if the remote e-mail address is operating or not, so it can be quite a good idea for it to be enabled just to be on the safe side.

E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Servers

Forwarding an e-mail address located on our servers will be very simple in case you have a semi-dedicated server plan with our company and it'll not take you more than a few clicks to create. This can be done from the Emails part of the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel and you'll be able to check the mailboxes which are being forwarded and where your e-mails are going to with a glance. The feature can be enabled and disabled for each of the mailboxes inside your account. You could also activate or deactivate a useful feature we offer - a backup of the e-mails being sent through our system can stay on the server. In this way, you will always have a backup of your incoming email messages and you will not need to worry about loss of any information. In case you keep this option deactivated, you run the risk of losing e-mails if there's a problem with the remote mailbox.
