The term email forwarding refers to an email being forwarded from a receiving address towards a third-party address that is not listed as a recipient. For example, a client sends out an e-mail from their private mail box to support@domain.com and as far as they are involved, it is the only recipient. If there is an active forwarding, the message could be forwarded to owner@domain.com, for example, although the customer in no way intended the message to be sent there and might not be aware of the existence of this mailbox. There are different purposes for working with such forwarding. For example, if you've got several email addresses you're able to forward each of them to a single email address, which will make monitoring emails easier and will permit you to get messages and respond timely. The feature can also be used if a number of individuals should get a copy of an e mail message delivered to a general email address.

E-mail Forwarding in Cloud Hosting

The Hepsia Control Panel, that comes with all the cloud hosting plans, will help you to forward any email inside the account to a different one with ease. This can be done either during the creation of a new email address or any time afterwards in case you choose that you require this function. During the process, you'll be able to decide if you want a duplicate of the e-mails to be maintained on the server. In this way, you will have a backup and you will prevent the probability to lose an email if the forwarding is to an outside address, that's momentarily inaccessible. This option can be enabled and deactivated whenever you want, but if you use e-mail for critical matters, it is better to use it, as no data of the email messages are maintained on the server when the option is not active. If you decide that you do not need forwarding any more, it will take only a mouse click to disable it.

E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Servers

Forwarding an email address hosted on our servers can be very easy in case you have a semi-dedicated server package with us and will also not take you more than a couple of mouse clicks to create. You can do this through the Emails area of the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel and you will be able to monitor the email addresses which are being forwarded and where your emails will be sent with a glance. The feature can be activated and deactivated for any of the email addresses inside your account. You could also activate or deactivate a useful option we provide - a backup of the e-mails being sent through our servers can remain on the server. This way, you'll always have a backup copy of your incoming emails and you will not have to be worried about loss of any information. If you keep this option deactivated, you run the risk of losing emails should there be a problem with the remote email address.
