Setting up a Forwarding Account in the Email Control Center
You can set up email addresses for the purpose of forwarding all messages to another mailbox. For example, you might want the address support@coolexample.com to forward messages to you@coolexample.com to ensure that messages are not lost. Once you purchase email forwarding accounts, you can set up and manage them in the Email Control Center.
NOTE: To set up multiple email forwards at once see, Adding Multiple Email Forwards.
