In this tutorial, we’re going to show you how to enable email forwarding (filtering) on your AwardSpace e-mail account.

 

What is Email Message Filtering?

E-mail message filtering is the automatic processing and organizing of e-mail messages when a given scenario occurs. For example, you can enable automatic forwarding, replying, rejection or deletion when someone sends you an e-mail message. The best thing about e-mail filtering is that you can enable more than one filter per e-mail account, which can end up in very satisfactory and interesting results.

 

How Can I Enable Email Forwarding on my Email Account?

In order to configure an email forwarder, please follow the below mentioned process:

  1. Log in to the Hosting Control Panel of your AwardSpace website hosting account.
  2. Go to the Email Accounts section.
  3. Select the E-mail Accounts tab.
  4. Click on the email account you wish to add an email forwarder. (Do not have an e-mail account yet? You can easily set up one by following the steps in our Creating an Email Account tutorial.)
  5. Click on the Filters menu.
