Forward email to another address
Forward a single address, or matching addresses across two domains.
Where Tools → Email → Forwarders
Before you start
- Know the authorised source and destination. A forwarder is not an inbox you can log into.
- Decide whether a local mailbox should also retain copies.
Steps
-
1
Enter the part before @ in Address to Forward and choose the source domain.
-
2
Check that the destination does not forward back to the source, then click Add Forwarder.
-
3
For domain-wide forwarding, use Add Domain Forwarder from the main screen. Choose the source and destination domains; matching address names are forwarded, rather than every message going to one inbox.
-
4
To stop forwarding, remove the matching rule from the list. Manage any local mailbox separately; deleting a forwarder is not deleting a mailbox.
-
5
Open Forwarders. Click Add Forwarder for one address, not Add Domain Forwarder.
Choose between a single-address forwarder and a domain forwarder. -
6
Keep Forward to Email Address selected. Enter the full destination address in the field beneath it.
Enter the source address and complete destination.
Check it worked
- Check the source and destination shown in the list.
- Send a new message from an external address and check the destination inbox and spam folder.
