The term email forwarding describes a message being forwarded from a receiving address to a third-party address that is not listed as a receiver. For instance, a customer sends out an e-mail from their private mailbox to support@domain.com and as much as they're involved, it is the only receiver. If there's an active forwarding, the e-mail might be forwarded to owner@domain.com, for example, although the customer never meant the message to be sent there and might not be aware of the existence of this mailbox. There are different reasons for working with such forwarding. For instance, if you've many email addresses you're able to forward them all to a single email address, which will make monitoring emails less difficult and allows you to collect emails and respond to them quickly. The feature could also be used if a number of individuals should get a copy of an electronic message sent to a general email address.

E-mail Forwarding in Shared Web Hosting

It is really simple to set up forwarding for virtually every email address created in a shared web hosting account with us. This can be accomplished either when you create a new email address via your Hepsia Hosting Control Panel, or at any time in the future since the forwarding can be enabled and disabled for any active mailbox with just a couple of clicks. It is also possible to decide if a copy of the incoming messages will be kept on our servers, which is a pretty valuable feature. This will be a fail-safe if the remote email address is not available for whatever reason, not mentioning that you will always have a backup of all messages. If this feature is not enabled for a specific e-mail address on our end, an inbound message will be received and sent forward, so absolutely no record of it will remain on the server. When the remote mailbox is unavailable temporarily, you'll lose this message.

E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Servers

Forwarding an e-mail address located in our system will be very straightforward in case you have a semi-dedicated server plan with us and will also not take you more than a few clicks to set up. This can be done through the Emails section of the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel and you will be able to keep an eye on the mailboxes which are being forwarded and where the messages will be sent with a glance. The feature can be enabled and disabled for each of the email addresses in your account. You could also enable or disable a useful feature that we have - a backup of the messages being relayed through our servers can remain on the server. This way, you will always have a backup of your incoming e-mails and you'll not need to be worried about losing any info. If you keep this option disabled, you risk losing emails when there is an issue with the remote mailbox.
