E-mail Forwarding

What's e-mail forwarding? How exactly does it function? In which instances is it particularly helpful?

When you've got an email address and you activate forwarding for it, all inbound messages will be sent to a third-party mailbox of your choice. The email sender won't be aware of this and he will be sending the email only to the first address. This function is useful if you have several websites, each one with a unique email for contact, for instance. By forwarding all e-mails to a single e-mail, it will be easier for you to keep track and never pass up an e-mail as you have forgotten to check on a particular e-mail. In case you have a business, you’re able to take advantage of this feature to check the communication received by different departments. An additional benefit is that you'll be able to work with an official e-mail address for a number of reasons, let’s say admin@your-domain.com, and you can now get all messages sent to it inside your personal email address. In addition, you can forward e-mails from one email address to numerous ones, in case a number of people needs to be involved with the email communication.

E-mail Forwarding in Cloud Hosting

It really is easy to set up forwarding for virtually every e-mail set up inside a cloud hosting account from our company. This can be accomplished either while you set up a brand new mailbox via your Hepsia Hosting Control Panel, or at any moment in the future as the forwarding can be enabled and deactivated for any active mailbox with only a few mouse clicks. You can also choose if a backup copy of the inbound messages will be kept on our servers, which is a pretty useful option. This will be a fail-safe in case that the remote email address is not accessible for whatever reason, not mentioning that you'll have always a copy of all your emails. When this option is not activated for a specific e-mail address on our end, an inbound message will be received and sent forward, so no record of it will stay on our server. If the remote email address is down for the moment, you will simply lose this message.

E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Hosting

For people with a semi-dedicated server through us, you will need only a few clicks inside the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Hosting Control Panel to forward the email addresses configured on our system to a third-party e-mail address. Inside the exact same area you will additionally have the ability to see how many of your mailboxes are forwarded and where the inbound e-mails are going. You can activate or deactivate a forwarding account at any moment and during the process you may as well choose if a backup copy of the emails needs to be kept in our system or not. Even though this option is not a necessity, it is very practical as you will have a backup copy of the messages on our end in case that something occurs with the third-party mailbox. Even when they've got simply a short-term problem, you run the risk of losing emails as the moment our server gets and forwards a message, absolutely nothing will be kept on our end unless you selected a copy to be saved.
