The term email forwarding describes a message being forwarded from a recipient address to a third-party address that isn't listed as a recipient. For example, a client sends an email from their personal mail box to support@domain.com and as far as they are involved, it is the single receiver. When there is an active forwarding, the message can be sent to owner@domain.com, for instance, even though the customer never meant the e-mail to be sent there and might not be aware of the existence of this mail box. There are numerous purposes for applying such forwarding. For instance, if you have a number of email addresses you're able to forward them all to a sole mail box, which will make monitoring emails easier and will allow you to receive emails and respond to them timely. The feature can also be used if a number of individuals should receive a copy of an email message delivered to a standard mailbox.
