The term email forwarding describes an e-mail message being forwarded from a recipient address to a third-party address that isn't listed as a receiver. For instance, a client sends an e-mail from their private mailbox to support@domain.com and as much as they are concerned, this is actually the single receiver. When there is an active forwarding, the e-mail can be forwarded to owner@domain.com, for instance, even though the customer never meant the email to be sent there and may not be aware about the presence of this mail box. There are several purposes for working with such forwarding. For instance, if you have many e-mail addresses you are able to forward them all to a one email address, which will make keeping track of email messages simpler and allows you to collect e-mails and respond to them promptly. The feature could also be used if a number of people should get a copy of an email message sent to a general mailbox.

E-mail Forwarding in Hosting

You will be able to forward any e-mail address hosted through our system to one or more third-party addresses with ease if you have a hosting plan with us. The feature can be activated and disabled in the Emails part of the Hepsia Control Panel whenever you want and you will be able to check out a summary of all email addresses where your correspondence will be sent to. Additionally, you will have the choice to keep a copy of the inbound communications on our server and have a backup if you remove anything from the remote mailbox. This feature can be quite handy if there's a temporary downtime with the other mailbox. As long as it really is activated and we make a copy of all your emails being relayed through our servers, you will not risk losing e-mails.

E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you have a semi-dedicated server through us, you will need a few clicks inside the Email Manager part of your Hepsia Hosting Control Panel to forward the e-mail addresses set up on our end to a third-party e-mail address. In the very same section you will also be able to observe how many of your mailboxes are forwarded and exactly where the incoming emails are going. You can enable or disable a forwarding account whenever you want and during the process you may also choose whether a backup of the email messages needs to be kept in our system or not. Although this option isn't a requirement, it's very valuable because you will get a backup copy of the messages on our end in case that anything occurs with the third-party mailbox. Even if they have just a temporary problem, you run the risk of losing e-mail messages as when our system gets and forwards an e-mail, nothing at all will be maintained on our end unless you selected a copy to be maintained.
