The term e-mail forwarding describes a message being forwarded from a receiving address to a third-party address that's not listed as a recipient. For example, a customer sends out an e-mail from their private mail box to support@domain.com and as far as they're involved, this is actually the only receiver. If there's an active forwarding, the message might be sent to owner@domain.com, for instance, even though the customer in no way intended the e-mail to be sent there and may not be aware of the presence of this mailbox. There are different purposes for using such forwarding. For example, if you've got several emails you can forward them all to a one email address, which will make monitoring emails less difficult and allows you to get e-mails and respond to them promptly. The feature can also be used in case a number of individuals should receive a copy of an email message sent to a general mail box.

E-mail Forwarding in Shared Website Hosting

It is really easy to configure forwarding for every email address configured in a shared website hosting account from us. You can do this either when you set up a new email address via your Hepsia Hosting Control Panel, or any time afterwards because the forwarding can be enabled and disabled for every existing email address with only a few mouse clicks. It's also possible to choose if a copy of the inbound e-mails will be kept on our servers, which is a very practical option. This will be a fail-safe in case that the remote email address is not available for some reason, not mentioning you will always have a copy of all your messages. When this option is not enabled for a given e-mail address on our end, an incoming message will be received and sent forward, so no record of it will remain on the server. If the remote mailbox is inaccessible for the moment, you will lose this email.
