E-mail Forwarding
What's e-mail forwarding? How exactly does it work? In which instances is it particularly helpful?
If you have an e-mail address and you enable forwarding for it, all inbound emails will be sent to a third-party email address of your choice. The e-mail sender won't be aware of this and he will send the e-mail just to the initial address. Such a feature is effective if you have multiple sites, each one with a separate email address for contact, for example. By forwarding all e-mails to a single email, it will be simpler for you to keep a record and not neglect an e-mail because you have overlooked to check on a certain email. For those who have a business, you’ll be able to employ this feature to watch the e-mails received by various departments. An additional benefit is that you can make use of an official address for some reasons, let’s say admin@your-domain.com, and you can get all emails sent to it inside your private email address. You can also forward email messages from a single email address to multiple ones, if a number of people should be involved in the e-mail conversation.

E-mail Forwarding in Shared Website Hosting
If you have a
shared website hosting package with us and you set up e-mail addresses in your account, you'll be able to forward it with no more than a couple of mouse clicks to another e-mail address of your choosing. The option can be activated when you create a brand new mailbox or whenever you want afterwards 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 decide whether a duplicate of the incoming emails will remain on our servers or not. The main advantage of this option is that you will always have a copy on your end if something occurs with the other mailbox or if it isn't active for whatever reason during the time a message is forwarded. If the option is not active, an e-mail will be received, forwarded and erased from our servers regardless of whether the remote email address is working or not, so it might be a good idea to have it enabled just to be on the safe side.

E-mail Forwarding in Semi-dedicated Servers
For people with a
semi-dedicated server from our company, it will take you simply a few mouse clicks in the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Hosting Control Panel to forward any of the email addresses created on our end to a third-party e-mail address. In the very same area you will also have the ability to observe how many of your mailboxes are forwarded and where the inbound e-mails are sent. You're able to activate or deactivate a forwarding account at any moment and throughout the process you may also choose whether a backup copy of the e-mails should be maintained in our system or not. Although this option isn't a necessity, it's very practical since you will get a backup copy of the emails on our end in case that anything occurs with the third-party mailbox. Even if they have just a temporary problem, you risk losing e-mail messages as when our server gets and forwards an email, absolutely nothing will be maintained on our end unless you chosen a backup to be saved.
