You can purchase email forwarding accounts to set up extra email addresses without having to purchase full mailboxes. Once you purchase a pack of email forwarding accounts, you can associate them with any of your email addresses.
To Forward Email Messages to Another Account
- Log in to your Account Manager.
- In the My Products section, click Email.
- Next to the account you want to use, click Manage Account.
- If you have unused email plans, and have not previously disabled the pop-in message that displays, click View All to view your complete list of email plans.
- On the left, click Forwarding Plans to use a forwarding plan you have already set up, or click Unused Forwarding, under the Unused Plans folder to use a new plan.
- Click Add next to the Email Forwarding account you want to use.
- Click Add for the forwarding account to which you want to add a forwarding address.
- In the Add Forward field, enter the first part of the email address, ie. the user name.
- In the Forward Mail To field, enter the email address that you want to forward messages to.
- To make the mailbox a catch-all account, select Yes. A catch-all account receives all messages sent to non-existent email addresses at your domain. For example, unknown@mydomain.com.
- To set an automatic response for this account, select Auto-Responder, and then type the message in the Auto-responder message text box. You can also specify a date and time for the auto response to start and end.An auto-response allows you to automatically send a reply message to people who send you email messages.
- Click OK.
