With the email forwarding enabled for a given address, all inbound messages will be forwarded to a third-party address that you've chosen even though the latter will not be in the list of recipients and the sender won't be informed where their e-mail goes. You can use this function if you have numerous emails as it will likely be easier to receive all incoming messages in just a single mailbox as an alternative to signing in and out of various ones all the time or setting up a variety of mail boxes in an email application. In case you manage a company or perhaps an organization, the e-mail forwarding is also a method to look at all e-mails received by different divisions for improved coordination. It's also possible to use this characteristic the opposite way round - an email sent to a standard email address can be forwarded to multiple people.

E-mail Forwarding in Shared Hosting

If you have a shared hosting plan with our company and you set up an email address inside your account, you'll be able to forward it with just a couple of clicks to another e-mail address of your preference. The feature can be enabled when you create a brand new mailbox or whenever you want later and deactivated just as easily in case you change your mind. This is done from the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel where you will control your account. You will also have the option to choose whether a copy of the inbound emails will remain on our servers or not. The advantage of this feature is you will always have a backup on your server if anything happens with the other email address or if perhaps it is not active for whatever reason at the time an email message is forwarded. When the feature not enabled, an e-mail will be received, forwarded and deleted from our system regardless of whether the remote e-mail address is functioning or not, so it might be a good idea to have it enabled just to be prepared.

E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Servers

For people with a semi-dedicated server through us, it will take simply a few clicks inside the Email Manager part of your Hepsia Hosting Control Panel to forward any of the emails configured on our system to a third-party address. Inside the very same section you will also be able to see how many of your email addresses are forwarded and exactly where the inbound messages are sent. It is possible to enable or disable a forwarding account at any time and during the process you could also choose whether a backup of the e-mails needs to be kept on our servers or not. Even though this option isn't a requirement, it is quite handy as you will get a copy of the messages on our end in the event that something occurs with the third-party email address. Even when they've got simply a temporary issue, you risk losing email messages as the moment our server gets and forwards a message, nothing will be kept on our end unless you selected a backup to be kept.
