The term email forwarding refers to a message being forwarded from a recipient address towards a third-party address which isn't mentioned as a recipient. For instance, a customer sends out an email from their personal mail box to support@domain.com and as much as they are involved, this is actually the only recipient. When there is an active forwarding, the email could be forwarded to owner@domain.com, for instance, even though the customer never intended the message to be sent there and may not be aware about the existence of this mailbox. There are numerous reasons for making use of such forwarding. For example, if you have a number of email addresses you can forward all of them to a one mail box, which can make checking emails easier and will allow you to receive e-mails and respond to them on time. The function could also be used in case a number of individuals should get a copy of an e-mail message sent to a standard mail box.

E-mail Forwarding in Shared Website Hosting

If you have a shared website hosting plan with our company and you create email addresses in your account, you will be able to forward it with just a few clicks to another address of your preference. The option can be enabled when you set up a brand new mailbox or any time later on and disabled just as quickly in case you change your mind. This can be done with the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel where you will manage your account. You will also have the option to decide whether a duplicate of the inbound emails 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 something occurs with the other email address or maybe if it's not active for some reason during the time an e-mail message is forwarded. In case the option is not active, an email will be received, forwarded and deleted from our servers no matter if the remote e-mail address is operating or not, so it might be a good idea to have it enabled just to be prepared.
