How to set up Email Forwarding
Email forwarding is when an email is sent to an email address and is then automatically forwarded on to another email address. There are
two types of email forwarding:
Individual email forwarding: This lets you create an email address that will forward emails on to a different email address or mailbox.
Catch-all forwarding: These emails will only forward if there isn’t an existing mailbox or forward in place. Catch-all refers to a mailbox on a domain that will 'catch all' of the emails addressed to the domain that do not exist in the mail server. Configuring a catch-all address can help avoid losing emails due to misspellings on your email addresses.
To setup an Individual Email Forwarder:
1. Log into your account from https://chi.uk2.net/
