The term e-mail forwarding refers to an email message being forwarded from a receiving address to a third-party address which isn't mentioned as a recipient. For instance, a client sends out an email from their personal mailbox to support@domain.com and as much as they're involved, this is the only recipient. If there's an active forwarding, the message might be sent to owner@domain.com, for example, even though the customer in no way meant the e-mail to be sent there and might not be aware of the existence of this mail box. There are several purposes for applying such forwarding. For example, if you've got a number of emails it is possible to forward each of them to a single mailbox, which will make keeping track of emails less difficult and allows you to get emails and respond to them quickly. The function may also be used in case a number of individuals should receive a copy of an email message sent to a standard mail box.

E-mail Forwarding in Cloud Hosting

In case you have a cloud hosting plan with our company and you create an email address inside your account, you'll be able to forward it with just a couple of clicks to any other address of your choosing. The feature can be enabled when you create a new mailbox or any time later and deactivated just as easily in case you change your mind. This can be done from the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel where you will manage your account. Additionally, you will have the option to choose if a duplicate of the inbound messages will stay on our servers or not. The advantage of this feature is you will always have a copy on your server if something happens with the other email address or maybe if it's not active for reasons unknown during the time an e-mail message is forwarded. In case the option is not active, a message will be received, forwarded and erased from our system no matter if the remote e-mail address is working or not, so it generally is a good idea to have it enabled just to be on the safe side.

E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Hosting

The feature-rich Email Manager tool inside the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel, which will come with all of our semi-dedicated hosting, will help you forward any email that you make in the account to one or multiple additional email address with only a handful of mouse clicks. You will also have the ability to see a set of all mailboxes you have, which of them are forwarded and also exactly where they're forwarded to. This feature can be activated and deactivated whenever you want and you can furthermore decide on whether a backup of the inbound emails must be kept on our servers or not. Though this feature is completely optional, it may be far more convenient if you take advantage of it, because you have a backup of your emails when there is any kind of problem with the remote mail server. Even when there is a momentary issue and no email messages are lost on our servers, you might still not get a forwarded e-mail if it was relayed by our servers within the downtime.
