If you have an email address and you enable forwarding for it, all of the inbound messages will be sent to a third-party mailbox that you choose. The e-mail sender won't be aware of this and he will be sending the message only to the initial address. This feature is effective in case you have several websites, each with a separate e-mail for contact, for instance. By forwarding all emails to one particular email, it will be easier for you to keep a record and never miss a message because you have forgotten to check a certain e-mail address. For those who have a business, you’ll be able to take advantage of this function to keep track of the communication received by different departments. Another advantage is the fact that you're able to use an official email address for a number of needs, let’s say admin@your-domain.com, and you can now get all emails sent to it in your private mailbox. In addition, you can forward messages from a single email address to a number of ones, if a number of individuals needs to be involved in the email communication.
