The term e-mail forwarding refers to an email being forwarded from a receiving address to a third-party address that isn't mentioned as a receiver. For example, a client sends out an e-mail from their private mailbox to support@domain.com and as much as they are concerned, it is the only receiver. When there is an active forwarding, the email can be forwarded to owner@domain.com, for instance, although the customer in no way meant the message to be sent there and may not be aware of the presence of this mail box. There are several reasons for applying such forwarding. For example, if you've numerous emails you are able to forward each of them to a sole email address, which will make monitoring emails less difficult and allows you to collect messages and respond on time. The function can also be used if a number of people should receive a copy of an electronic message sent to a standard mailbox.
E-mail Forwarding in Hosting
In case you have a hosting package with us and you set up e-mail addresses inside your account, you'll be able to forward it with no more than a couple of mouse clicks to any other address of your choice. The feature can be enabled whenever you make a new mailbox or whenever you want later and deactivated just as easily any time you change your mind. This can be done through the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel where you will handle your account. You will also have the option to choose whether a copy of the incoming e-mails will remain on our servers or not. The advantage of this option is you will always have a copy on your end if something occurs with the other email address or if perhaps it's not active for reasons unknown at the time an email message is forwarded. If the feature not active, an e-mail will be received, forwarded and removed from our system even if the remote e-mail is functioning or not, so it generally is a wise decision for it to be active just to be prepared.
E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Hosting
If you have a semi-dedicated server through us, you will need just a couple of mouse clicks in the Email Manager area of your Hepsia Hosting Control Panel to forward the email addresses created on our system to a third-party address. In the very same area you will also have the ability to observe how many of your email addresses are forwarded and where the incoming messages are going. You can enable or disable a forwarding account at any time and during the process you may also decide if a copy of the messages should be maintained on our servers or not. Even though this option is not a requirement, it is extremely valuable because you will have a copy of the emails on our end in the event that something happens with the third-party mailbox. Even if they've got only a momentary issue, you run the risk of losing email messages as once our system receives and forwards an e-mail message, nothing will be kept on our end unless you chosen a copy to be maintained.
