In this guide, we show you how to setup an <strong>Email Forwarder<\/strong> in both your <em>cPanel<\/em> and <em>Webmail<\/em>. After that we take you through how to forward all email messages for a domain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>What are Email Forwarders?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Create Forwarder in cPanel<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Create Forwarder in Webmail<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Domain Forwarder<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-are-email-forwarders\">What are Email Forwarders?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have multiple email addresses for your business, it\u2019s a good practice to forward all email messages to one account. So if you have <em>sales@example.com<\/em>,<em>service@example.com<\/em>, and <em>support@example.com<\/em> email addresses, all of them can be sent to one account such as <em>customers@example.com<\/em>. Setting up email forwarders can be done through cPanel or through your Webmail login page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cpanel.net\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">cPanel<\/a> allows you to create two types of email forwarders: <em>Email Account Forwarders<\/em> and <em>Domain Forwarders<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Email Account Forwarders<\/em> are assigned as one forwarder per email account. You can create multiple forwarders, but you have to do them individually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Global Email Filters<\/em> are based on a domain name. When you create a <em>Domain Forwarder<\/em>, it sends all email to the domain that you specify. <em>Be cautious with this option as it overrides the existing domain setting for email accounts, however.<\/em> For example, if you create a domain forwarder for <strong>domain1.com<\/strong> to forward to <strong>domain2.com<\/strong>, any email for domain1.com will automatically go to domain2.com. Corresponding email accounts must exist in order for email to be delivered \u2013 they\u2019re not automatically created for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Catch-All emails are not permitted on shared server accounts<\/strong>. They can only be turned on for VPS or Dedicated server accounts. Don\u2019t have either of those? Check out <a href=\"https:\/\/vpswebhostingindia.in\/vps_hosting\/\">VPS Hosting<\/a>. It\u2019s a great option for those people looking for simple, reliable, and fast web hosting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Creating a Forwarder in cPanel<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 1: Log into cPanel<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 2: Click the <strong>Forwarders<\/strong> button in the <em>Email<\/em> section.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"344\" data-id=\"87\" src=\"https:\/\/vpswebhostingindia.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/image-14-1024x344.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-87\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vpswebhostingindia.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/image-14-1024x344.png 1024w, https:\/\/vpswebhostingindia.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/image-14-300x101.png 300w, https:\/\/vpswebhostingindia.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/image-14-768x258.png 768w, https:\/\/vpswebhostingindia.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/image-14.png 1297w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 3: <\/strong>On the <em>forwarders<\/em> page, click <strong>Add<\/strong> <strong>Forwarder<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"514\" src=\"https:\/\/vpswebhostingindia.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/image-15-1024x514.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-88\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vpswebhostingindia.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/image-15-1024x514.png 1024w, https:\/\/vpswebhostingindia.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/image-15-300x151.png 300w, https:\/\/vpswebhostingindia.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/image-15-768x385.png 768w, https:\/\/vpswebhostingindia.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/image-15-1536x771.png 1536w, https:\/\/vpswebhostingindia.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/image-15.png 1664w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 4:<\/strong> <strong>On the <em>Add a New Forwarder<\/em>page, type the email address username in the<em> Address to Forward<\/em> space.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 5: Select the domain from the drop-down box.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"453\" height=\"171\" src=\"https:\/\/vpswebhostingindia.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/image-16.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-90\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vpswebhostingindia.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/image-16.png 453w, https:\/\/vpswebhostingindia.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/image-16-300x113.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 453px) 100vw, 453px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 6: For the Destination option, type the full email address that you want to forward emails to in the text box.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"746\" height=\"111\" src=\"https:\/\/vpswebhostingindia.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/image-18.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-92\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vpswebhostingindia.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/image-18.png 746w, https:\/\/vpswebhostingindia.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/image-18-300x45.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 746px) 100vw, 746px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 7: Click Add Forwarder.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"642\" height=\"366\" src=\"https:\/\/vpswebhostingindia.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Screenshot-2023-12-26-202626.png\" alt=\"Email\" class=\"wp-image-95\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vpswebhostingindia.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Screenshot-2023-12-26-202626.png 642w, https:\/\/vpswebhostingindia.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Screenshot-2023-12-26-202626-300x171.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 642px) 100vw, 642px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Congratulations, the email forwarder was created in the cPanel mail forwarders section.
