Creating email forwarders using cPanel

Setting up a forwarder for an email address, allows email to be sent to more than one account and has proven extremely beneficial for businesses. Instead of having to check multiple email accounts, emails can be redirected to one (or more) accounts, saving huge amounts of time for those involved.
Creating a forwarder for your account is very simple and can be done in a few seconds. Simply follow the steps below.

1. Login to cPanel using the details provided in your Account Information email.
2. Under the Mail section, click on Forwarders
3. Click on Add Forwarder
4. Complete the Address section: type in the first part of the email address to be forwarded and then choose the domain from the drop down menu.
5. Complete the Destination section: type in the complete email address of where the emails should be forwarded to.
6. Click Add Forwarder.

You should then see a message advising that this has been completed successfully. If there are any error messages, go back and repeat the above steps, ensuring that the spelling is correct and that you have not reached your forwarder quota.
