How does email forwarding work?

Email forwarding is a tool we use for:
  • giving you a custom email address that promotes your website
  • organizing or simplifying email functions
  • sending one email to multiple people
  • getting free email storage
  • creating magic!

We often set up emails for special purposes like ORDERS. Here's an example:
orders@waking girl.com forwards to >>
    the owner@personal email.com

Then, we learn that the accountant also wants to be notified of any orders, so we add:
orders@waking girl.com forwards to >>
    the owner@personal email.com AND
    accountant@personal email.com

And then we want to run some tests, so we add the web designer:
orders@waking girl.com forwards to >>
    the owner@personal email.com AND
    accountant@personal email.com AND
    web designer@personal email.com

We can continue with this list as needed. When tests are completed, we can remove the web designer from the forwarding chain. Or, if a new accountant is hired, the accountant's email address can be replaced.

Email forwarding is an excellent way to work with an organization that has turnover (non-profits, charities, events, etc.). We can easily change out the email forwarder without affecting all of the systems that have been built into the website over time.



What are the problems with email forwarding?
  • Some email providers despise forwarders. It's important that we test out forwarders to make sure they're sending properly.
  • You won't be able to reply as the custom forwarding email without further set-up.
  • Not all domain providers allow FREE email forwarding.
