With an email forwarding activated for a specific e-mail address, all of the incoming messages will be sent to a third-party address which you have picked even though the latter will not be in the list of recipients and the email sender will not be aware where their message will go. You can use this feature in case you have a number of email addresses since it will likely be more convenient to receive all of the incoming emails in just a single email address instead of logging in and out of various ones at all times or setting up a variety of mail boxes in an e-mail client. If you manage a company or maybe an enterprise, the e-mail forwarding is a way to check out all messages obtained by various departments for improved coordination. You could also use this feature the opposite way round - an e-mail sent to a general email address can be sent to multiple people.

E-mail Forwarding in Shared Website Hosting

In case you have a shared website hosting package with us and you create an e-mail address in your account, you'll be able to forward it with just a couple of clicks to any other e-mail address of your preference. The option can be activated whenever you set up a brand new email address or at any time afterwards and disabled just as quickly if you change your mind. This can be done with the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel where you will handle your account. Additionally, you will have the option to choose whether a backup of the incoming messages will remain on our servers or not. The benefit of this option is you will always have a copy on your server if something happens with the other mailbox or if it's not active for whatever reason during the time a message is forwarded. If the option is not enabled, an e-mail will be received, forwarded and erased from our servers regardless of whether the remote email is operating or not, so it might be a wise decision to have it active just to be prepared.

E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Servers

The feature-rich Email Manager tool in the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel, which will come with all our Linux semi-dedicated plan, will allow you to forward any email address you set up with the account to one or multiple additional email address with only several mouse clicks. You will additionally be able to see a list of all email addresses that you've got, those that are forwarded and also where they are forwarded to. This option can be activated and deactivated at any time and you can now also decide on whether a backup of the inbound email messages must be kept on our servers or not. Though this option is not necessary, it may be more convenient when you take advantage of it, because you will have a copy of your messages if there is any kind of problem with the remote email server. Even when there's a temporary issue and no email messages are lost on our end, you may still not receive a forwarded email in the event it was relayed by our servers throughout the downtime.
