Forward email without going to both addresses?

CharlesElliott · 21-01-2008, 10:46 AM

Is it possible to forward email to abc@<domain.com> to xyz@<domain.com> without it being deliverd to abc? (or at least, without it being stored there).

cPanel seems to offer the option of forwarding, but not 'moving' email. I'd like to forward email for around three addresses to a single address that I can collect it from - but don't want email building up at the three individual addresses as well.

Regards,

Charles

Charles,

This can be done using 'forwarders' in cpanel.

Paul - I'll check again later (can't access port 2082 from work) but I don't think there was an option to 'move' email, only to forward a copy to an email address whilst it is also delivered to the original addressee.

Charles,

If you set the address up as just a forwarder it shouldn't keep a copy anywhere. If you still have issues let us know.
