The term email forwarding refers to an email being forwarded from a receiving address to a third-party address that isn't mentioned as a recipient. For example, a customer sends an e-mail from their personal mail box to support@domain.com and as much as they are involved, this is actually the single recipient. When there is an active forwarding, the message could be forwarded to owner@domain.com, for example, even though the customer in no way intended the email to be sent there and might not be aware of the presence of this mailbox. There are several purposes for applying such forwarding. For example, if you've a number of emails it is possible to forward all of them to a sole mailbox, which will make keeping track of emails less complicated and will permit you to get emails and respond promptly. The function may also be used in case a number of individuals should get a copy of an electronic message delivered to a standard mailbox.

E-mail Forwarding in Shared Website Hosting

In case you have a shared website hosting package with us and you create an email address inside your account, you'll be able to forward it with only a couple of clicks to any other address of your preference. The feature can be activated whenever you make a brand new mailbox or whenever you want later on and deactivated just as easily any time you change your mind. This is done through the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel in which you can handle your account. In addition, you will have the option to decide whether a copy of the inbound e-mails will remain on our servers or not. The advantage of this option is basically that you will always have a copy on your server if something occurs with the other email address or if it's not active for some reason at the time an email message is forwarded. When the option is not enabled, an e-mail will be received, forwarded and deleted from our system regardless of whether the remote e-mail address is functioning or not, so it generally is a good idea for it to be active just to be prepared.

E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Forwarding an email address hosted on our servers can be very effortless in case you have a semi-dedicated server package with us and it'll not require you more than a couple of mouse clicks to create. You can do this from the Emails part of the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel and you will be able to keep an eye on the email addresses that are being forwarded and where the e-mails will be sent with a glance. The option can be activated and deactivated for any of the mailboxes inside your account. You can also activate or deactivate a useful option that we have - a copy of the emails being sent through our servers can stay on the server. In this way, you will always have a backup copy of your incoming e-mails and you'll not have to concern yourself with loss of any information. In case you keep this option disabled, you run the risk of losing emails if there's a problem with the remote mailbox.
