The term e-mail forwarding describes an e-mail message being forwarded from a receiving address towards a third-party address that is not mentioned as a receiver. For example, a client sends an email from their personal mail box to support@domain.com and as far as they are involved, this is actually the single recipient. If there's an active forwarding, the email can be forwarded to owner@domain.com, for instance, although the customer in no way intended the e-mail to be sent there and may not be aware about the existence of this mailbox. There are different purposes for using such forwarding. For example, if you've numerous e-mail addresses it is possible to forward all of them to a single mail box, which will make monitoring email messages less difficult and will permit you to get e-mails and respond promptly. The function may also be used if a number of people should receive a copy of an e-mail message sent to a standard email address.
E-mail Forwarding in Cloud Hosting
If you have a cloud hosting plan with our company and you create e-mail addresses inside your account, you are able to forward it with only a few mouse clicks to any other address of your choice. The feature can be activated whenever you create a brand new email address or whenever you want later and deactivated just as easily if you change your mind. This is done with the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel where you will control your account. You will also have the option to decide if a duplicate of the inbound emails will remain on our servers or not. The main advantage of this option is basically that you will always have a backup on your end if something happens with the other mailbox or if it's not active for reasons unknown at the time a message is forwarded. In case the feature not active, an e-mail will be received, forwarded and removed from our servers regardless of whether the remote email address is operating or not, so it generally is a wise decision to have it enabled just to be on the safe side.
E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Servers
The feature-rich Email Manager interface inside the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel, which comes with all of our semi-dedicated plan, will help you to forward any email address that you create with the account to one particular or several different addresses with only a number of mouse clicks. You will also be able to see a number of all of the mailboxes that you've got, which of them are forwarded as well as exactly where they're forwarded to. Email forwarding can be activated and deactivated at any time and you can now also decide on if a backup of the inbound emails needs to be maintained on our system or not. Although this option is not essential, it might be far more convenient when you make the most of it, because you will possess a backup of the e-mails if there is some kind of problem with the remote mail server. Even if there's a temporary issue and no e-mails are lost on our servers, you might still not get a forwarded message in case it was sent by our servers within the downtime.
