The term e-mail forwarding refers to an email being forwarded from a receiving address towards a third-party address which isn't listed as a recipient. For instance, a client sends an email from their personal mail box to support@domain.com and as much as they are concerned, this is actually the only receiver. If there is an active forwarding, the message might be sent to owner@domain.com, for example, even though the customer never meant the message to be sent there and might not be aware about the existence of this mailbox. There are several purposes for making use of such forwarding. For example, if you have various e-mail addresses you can forward them all to a one mailbox, which can make monitoring emails simpler and will permit you to receive emails and respond to them quickly. The feature can also be used in case a number of people should get a copy of an e-mail message sent to a general mail box.

E-mail Forwarding in Shared Hosting

It is simple to configure forwarding for any e-mail address created in a shared hosting account with us. This can be done either while you create a new e-mail address via your Hepsia Hosting Control Panel, or at any moment later because the forwarding can be activated and disabled for every active email address with only a couple of mouse clicks. You can also choose if a backup of the inbound e-mails will be maintained on our servers, which is a really helpful feature. This will be a fail-safe if the remote mailbox is not available for some cause, not mentioning that you'll have always a backup of all your emails. If this feature is not enabled for a specific e-mail address on our end, an incoming email will be received and sent forward, so absolutely no record of it will remain on the server. When the remote email address is down temporarily, you'll lose this email.

E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Servers

Forwarding an e mail address located in our system will be very straightforward in case you have a semi-dedicated server package with us and it will not require you more than a few mouse clicks to create. You can do this through the Emails part of the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel and you'll be able to keep an eye on the mailboxes that are being forwarded and where the e-mails will be sent with a glance. The option is activated and deactivated for any of the mailboxes in your account. You can also activate or deactivate a useful option that we have - a backup of the messages being sent through our servers can remain on the server. By doing this, you will also have a backup copy of your incoming emails and you'll not need to concern yourself with losing any info. If you keep this feature deactivated, you run the risk of losing e-mails should there be an issue with the remote mailbox.
