Email forwarders in cPanel allow you to automatically forward emails from one email address to another. This is useful when you want to receive emails sent to one address in multiple inboxes. Here's how to set up email forwarders in cPanel:
1. Log in to cPanel:
Open your web browser and log in to your cPanel account using your username and password.
2. Navigate to the "Forwarders" section:
Once you're logged in, find and click on the "Forwarders" icon or link. It's usually located in the Mail section of cPanel.
3. Click on "Add Forwarder":
In the Forwarders section, click on the "Add Forwarder" button to create a new email forwarder.
4. Set up the Forwarder details:
You'll be directed to a form where you need to specify the details for the email forwarder:
- Address to Forward: Enter the email address from which you want to forward emails (e.g., source@example.com).
- Domain: Choose the domain associated with the email address.
- Destination: Enter the email address where you want to forward the incoming emails (e.g., destination@example.com).
5. Click on "Add Forwarder":
After filling in the details, click on the "Add Forwarder" button to create the email forwarder.
6. Verify the forwarder:
The forwarder should now be set up. You can verify its successful creation by checking the list of forwarders in the "Forwarders" section.
7. Test the forwarder:
To ensure everything is working correctly, you can send a test email to the source email address (e.g., source@example.com). The email should be automatically forwarded to the destination email address (e.g., destination@example.com).
You can create multiple email forwarders as needed, allowing you to forward emails from different email addresses to various destinations.
Please note that some hosting providers might have customized cPanel interfaces, but the general steps for setting up email forwarders are similar across most cPanel installations. If you encounter any differences, you can refer to your hosting provider's documentation or contact their support for specific instructions.
