The term e-mail forwarding describes an email being forwarded from a receiving address to a third-party address which isn't listed as a recipient. For instance, a customer sends out an e-mail from their personal mailbox to support@domain.com and as far as they are concerned, it is the single recipient. If there is an active forwarding, the e-mail could be forwarded to owner@domain.com, for instance, even though the customer never intended the message to be sent there and may not be aware about the presence of this mail box. There are several reasons for making use of such forwarding. For instance, if you've many e-mail addresses you'll be able to forward all of them to a single mailbox, which can make keeping track of e-mails less complicated and allows you to receive messages and respond to them timely. The feature may also be used if a number of people should get a copy of an electronic message delivered to a standard email address.

You can do this either throughout the creation of a brand new mailbox or whenever you want later if you choose that you want this function. During the process, you will be able to decide if you want a duplicate of the email messages to be kept on the server. In this way, you will have a backup and you will steer clear of the probability to lose a message if the forwarding is to an external address, which is temporarily inaccessible. This option can be enabled and deactivated at any moment, but if you use emails for crucial matters, it is better to use it, because no records of the e-mails will be kept on the server in case the option is not enabled. If you determine that you don't need forwarding anymore, it will take a click to deactivate it.
