The term e-mail forwarding refers to an email message being forwarded from a receiving address towards a third-party address which is not mentioned as a recipient. For instance, a customer sends an e-mail from their private mailbox to support@domain.com and as far as they're involved, it is the single receiver. If there is an active forwarding, the email might be sent to owner@domain.com, for instance, even though the customer in no way meant the message to be sent there and might not be aware of the existence of this mail box. There are several reasons for using such forwarding. For example, if you've got various emails you're able to forward each of them to a one mail box, which can make monitoring e-mails simpler and will allow you to get messages and respond quickly. The feature could also be used if a number of individuals should get a copy of an e-mail message delivered to a general mailbox.

E-mail Forwarding in Hosting

If you have a hosting package with our company and you set up an email address inside your account, you will be able to forward it with no more than a couple of clicks to another e-mail address of your choosing. The option can be activated when you make a new email address or any time later and deactivated just as easily in case you change your mind. This can be done through the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel in which you can manage your account. You will also have the option to choose if a duplicate of the incoming e-mails will remain on our servers or not. The main advantage of this feature is that you will always have a copy on your end if something occurs with the other email address or maybe it is not active for some reason during the time an email is forwarded. When the option is not enabled, an e-mail will be received, forwarded and deleted from our servers even if the remote e-mail is functioning or not, so it is usually a wise decision to have it active just to be prepared.
