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><a href=\"#what\">What are Email Forwarders?<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#cpanel\">Create Forwarder in cPanel<\/a> <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#webmail\">Create Forwarder in Webmail<\/a> <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#forward-domain\">Domain Forwarder<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what\">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>cPanel 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:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/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<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><div class=\"yt-mjwI6z2Bzi8\">\n\t<a class=\"play-video-mjwI6z2Bzi8\" style=\"position: relative; display: flex; flex-wrap: wrap; align-items: center; cursor: pointer;\">\n\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi_webp\/mjwI6z2Bzi8\/maxresdefault.webp\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" alt=\"How to Setup Email Forwarding in cPanel\" style=\"width: 100%; height: auto;\">\n\t\t<span class=\"fa fa-imh-play-circle imh-ds-icon play-circle\" style=\"position: absolute; display:block; font-size:150px; color: #c52228; opacity:0;\"><\/span>\n\t<\/a>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Don\u2019t have time to read the guide on how to setup an email forwarder?
