The term email forwarding refers to an e-mail being forwarded from a recipient address towards a third-party address which is not listed as a recipient. For example, a customer sends out an email from their personal mailbox to support@domain.com and as much as they're concerned, this is the only recipient. When there is an active forwarding, the e-mail could be forwarded to owner@domain.com, for example, 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 numerous purposes for making use of such forwarding. For example, if you have many emails it is easy to forward all of them to a single email address, which will make checking emails less complicated and will allow you to get e-mails and respond to them promptly. The feature could also be used in case a number of individuals should receive a copy of an e mail message sent to a standard mailbox.

E-mail Forwarding in Hosting

It is really easy to set up forwarding for every email address set up in a hosting account with us. This can be done either while you create a new e-mail address using your Hepsia Hosting Control Panel, or at any time afterwards since the forwarding can be activated and deactivated for any active email address with a few mouse clicks. You can also choose if a copy of the inbound e-mails will be maintained on our servers, a really valuable feature. This can be a fail-safe whenever the remote mailbox is not accessible for whatever cause, not mentioning that you will have always a backup of all emails. When this feature is not activated for a specific e-mail on our end, an incoming message will be received and sent forward, so zero record of it will stay on our server. In case the remote mailbox is down for the moment, you will lose this e-mail.

E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Servers

Forwarding an e-mail address located on our servers can be very effortless if you have a semi-dedicated server package with our company and it'll not take you more than a couple of mouse clicks to create. This can be done in the Emails part of the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel and you'll be able to keep an eye on the mailboxes which are being forwarded and where the messages are going to with a glance. The option is enabled and disabled for any of the email addresses in your account. You could also activate or deactivate a valuable option that we have - a copy of the messages being relayed through our system can stay on the server. By doing this, you will always have a backup of your incoming e-mail messages and you'll not have to concern yourself with loss of any info. If you keep this option deactivated, you risk losing email messages when there is an issue with the remote mailbox.
