The term email forwarding refers to a message being forwarded from a receiving address towards a third-party address that's not mentioned as a recipient. For example, a customer sends an e-mail from their personal mailbox to support@domain.com and as far as they are concerned, it is the only receiver. If there's an active forwarding, the message may be sent to owner@domain.com, for instance, although the customer never meant the email to be sent there and may not be aware of the presence of this mail box. There are different purposes for applying such forwarding. For example, if you've many email addresses you are able to forward each of them to a single email address, which can make checking e-mails less difficult and will permit you to collect emails and respond in a timely manner. The function may also be used if a number of individuals should receive a copy of an e-mail message delivered to a standard mailbox.

E-mail Forwarding in Shared Web Hosting

You'll be able to forward any email hosted through our system to one or more third-party addresses effortlessly if you've got a shared web hosting package with us. The option can be activated and deactivated from the Emails part of the Hepsia Control Panel at any moment and you'll be able to check out a summary of all emails where your correspondence is sent to. You'll have the choice to keep a duplicate of the inbound communications on our server and have a backup if you remove something from the remote email address. This option can be very handy if there's a brief downtime with the other mailbox. Provided that it really is activated and we make a copy of all emails being relayed through our servers, you simply won't risk losing messages.

E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you have a semi-dedicated server from our company, it will take you simply a couple of clicks in the Email Manager part of your Hepsia Hosting Control Panel to forward the email addresses configured on our end to a third-party e-mail address. Inside the same area you will also have the ability to see how many of your email addresses are forwarded and exactly where the inbound emails are going. You're able to enable or deactivate a forwarding account at any time and during the process you can also decide whether a copy of the emails needs to be kept on our servers or not. Even though this feature is not a requirement, it's very helpful as you will have a copy of the emails on our end just in case that something happens with the third-party email address. Even when they've got simply a momentary issue, you run the risk of losing e-mail messages as once our system gets and forwards an e-mail, nothing will be kept on our end if you haven’t chosen a copy to be stored.
