Email Forwarders
Email forwarders allow you to automatically redirect emails from one address to another. This is useful for creating aliases or ensuring you never miss important emails.
Creating a Forwarder
- Log into DirectAdmin
- Navigate to "Forwarders" under "E-mail Manager"
- Click "Create E-mail Forwarder"
- Fill in:
- New Forwarder Name (the address that will receive emails)
- Add Destination (where emails should be forwarded to)
- Use the "Add" button to specify multiple destination addresses if needed
- Click "Create"
WARNING
Do not use the "Pipe" option in the forwarding destination list as this feature will be removed in a future update.
Managing Forwarders
- View existing forwarders
- Delete forwarders when no longer needed
- Update destination addresses
Best Practices
- Regularly review your forwarders
- Test forwarders after creation
- Be cautious with forwarding chains to avoid loops
- Consider spam filtering implications
