With an email forwarding activated for any given e-mail address, all inbound e-mail messages will be sent to a third-party e-mail address which you have chosen although the latter won't be in the list of recipients and the email sender won't be aware where their message will go. Feel free to use this type of function if you have a number of email addresses because it will likely be more convenient to receive all incoming e-mails in just a single mailbox rather than logging in and out of different ones continuously or configuring a number of mail boxes in an e-mail app. If you manage a company as well as an organization, the e-mail forwarding is also a method to look at all messages received by various departments for better coordination. You can also make use of this characteristic the other way around - an e-mail sent to a general email address can be forwarded to several people.
E-mail Forwarding in Website Hosting
If you have a website hosting package with us and you create e-mail addresses inside your account, you are able to forward it with only a couple of mouse clicks to any other e-mail address of your choosing. The option can be enabled when you create a brand new email address or at any time later on and disabled just as quickly if you change your mind. This can be done with the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel where you will handle your account. You'll have the option to choose whether a copy of the inbound messages will stay on our servers or not. The main benefit of this option is you will always have a copy on your server if something occurs with the other email address or if it isn't active for whatever reason at the time an e-mail message is forwarded. In case the option is not enabled, an email will be received, forwarded and erased from our system even if the remote email is functioning or not, so it is usually a good idea to have it active just to be on the safe side.
E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you have a semi-dedicated server through our company, it will take a couple of mouse clicks inside the Email Manager area of your Hepsia Hosting Control Panel to forward any of the e-mails created on our system to a third-party e-mail address. Inside the same section you will additionally have the ability to observe how many of your mailboxes are forwarded and exactly where the inbound e-mails are sent. You can enable or disable a forwarding account at any time and throughout the process you may as well decide if a backup of the email messages should be kept in our system or not. Even if this feature isn't a requirement, it's very helpful since you will get a backup of the emails on our end just in case that something happens with the third-party email address. Even when they have simply a momentary problem, you risk losing e-mail messages as when our server gets and forwards an e-mail message, nothing at all will be maintained on our end unless you chosen a backup to be stored.
