The term email forwarding describes an email being forwarded from a recipient address to a third-party address which isn't listed as a receiver. For instance, a client sends out an e-mail from their private mail box to support@domain.com and as far as they're concerned, it is the single recipient. When there is an active forwarding, the message might be sent to owner@domain.com, for example, even though the customer never intended the e-mail to be sent there and might not be aware about the existence of this mailbox. There are several reasons for working with such forwarding. For instance, if you've got several email addresses you can forward them all to a one mailbox, which will make keeping track of e-mails easier and will permit you to receive e-mails and respond promptly. The function may also be used if a number of individuals should get a copy of an electronic message sent to a standard mailbox.

E-mail Forwarding in Shared Hosting

If you have a shared hosting package with us and you create an email address inside your account, you'll be able to forward it with no more than a couple of clicks to any other address of your preference. The option can be enabled when you make a brand new mailbox or at any time later on and disabled just as easily any time you change your mind. This is done through the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel in which you will handle your account. Additionally, you will have the option to decide if a duplicate of the inbound e-mails will stay on our servers or not. The benefit of this feature is basically that you will always have a copy on your end if anything happens with the other mailbox or if perhaps it's not active for reasons unknown during the time an e-mail message is forwarded. When the option is not enabled, a message will be received, forwarded and deleted from our servers regardless of whether the remote email address is operating or not, so it might be a wise decision to have it active just to be prepared.
