Email
forwarding enables you to forward mail sent to a certain address
at your domain to another email address or a POP3 mailbox. You can
create and modify an unlimited number of email forwarding options
via the Forwarding page.
To create a forward click 'Create Alias' on the Forwarding page.
On the following screen enter the alias that should be forwarded,
this is the part of the email address before the @ sign which should
be no more than 20 characters long and may consist of lower case
letters, numbers and '.' only. Specify where mail to this alias
should be sent. Click 'Create Alias'.
To change the routing for an alias click the corresponding 'Modify'
link in the listing on the Forwarding page. Make the appropriate
changes to the destination of the alias and click 'Modify Alias'.
The configuration will be updated on the server.
To delete a forward, click the 'Delete' link corresponding to the
forward in the listing on the Forwarding page. You will be asked
to confirm this action before the forward is actually deleted. On
confirmation the forward and any auto responder active on it will
be erased from the system.
All mail sent to the alias (the bit before the '@' sign) will be
sent to the selected POP3 mailbox on our server. In the typical
email configuration, each person has their own POP3 mailbox which
receives email addressed specifically to them. Generic addresses
such as 'sales@' and 'accounts@' can then be forwarded to the relevant
person within the organisation.
All mail sent to the alias (the bit before the '@' sign) will be
sent to the email address you specify. This is ideal if you already
have an email account elsewhere as there is no need to change your
email client settings and you can receive email sent to both your
original and new addresses.
