   Overview Of Email Forwarding


Email Forwarding simply forwards email to an existing email account. So you could have email sent to yourname@company.com forwarded to sales@yourcompany.com for example.

 

When your account is activated, a special Default E-mail Forward account is automatically set up that forwards all e-mail messages addressed to anything@yourdomain.com to the e-mail address that you provided when you applied for the account.

 

If you create a specific e-mail address, e-mail for the addresses that you have not yet configured will still be forwarded through your Default E-mail Forward account.

 

When using the e-mail forwarding option, please keep the following in mind:

 

  • As the account administrator, you are responsible for the proper configuration of the e-mail forwarding accounts.

  • You should never forward e-mail to an address that is not yours, not valid, or is over quota.

  • Forwarding e-mail from a specific e-mail address to multiple e-mail addresses is not supported.

  • If you enter an e-mail address into the default e-mail forwarding field, you will no longer receive e-mail messages in your Master POP account.

  • If you do not want to receive any e-mail through the default e-mail forward, you can enter devnull@yourdomain.com. The devnull feature allows you to have any messages forwarded to devnull@ deleted from the mail server, and is available on all Verio mail servers.

  • If you do not need to forward your e-mail, please do not. Most of the accounts we offer have both Webmail and POP3 access.

   Set Up A New Email Forward

To set up an e-mail forward, perform the following steps:

Note:The following steps assume that you have accessed your Control Panel.

Note:The e-mail forward feature allows you to have any e-mail sent to a particular address at your domain forwarded to an alternate account (i.e., any e-mail sent to sales@yourdomain.com could be forwarded to the sales manager for your company).

Step one:From the Control Panel, click “Email / Mail Settings.

Note:You may be prompted to log in again.

Step two:From Mail Forwarding, enter the alias from which you want e-mail forwarded.

Note:In this example, anyname was used. The alias is the portion of an e-mail address which comes before the @ symbol.

   Changing Your Default Email Forwarding Address


The following steps assume that you have accessed your
Control Panel.

Step one:Click Email / Mail Settings.

Note:You may be prompted to log in.

Step two:From the Mail Forwarding Web page, enter the e-mail address to which you want your e-mail forwarded. Click Change.

Note:When your account is activated, a special Default E-mail Forward account is automatically set up that forwards all e-mail messages addressed to anything@yourdomain.com to the e-mail address that you provided when you applied for the account.

Image of step two

Note:Do not set your e-mail forward to an address at yourdomain.com if you have not yet created that address or your domain name is not yet active. If you set your e-mail forward to an invalid e-mail address, it will result in the loss of e-mail.

Note:If you would like to delete any messages sent to unregistered e-mail addresses, then please set the default forward to "devnull@yourdomain.com". Using the devnull@ feature, the mail system will automatically delete the messages for you. Please note, when using this method, the sender will not receive a message informing them that they have sent an e-mail to an unregistered address.

Note:If you would like to automatically send a message to anybody sending e-mail to an unregistered e-mail address at your domain, set up an autoresponder in the format of a bounce message. Then set the master forward to the autoresponder e-mail address
