Email Forwarding

Email forwarding Service for small businesses

An email forwarding service is a virtual office solution for small business owners.  You can establish an email forwarding domain and e-mail forwarding service to forward emails to several different accounts.  This is especially helpful when you need more than one address for various email topics or purposes.

For example, you may need one email address specifically for questions about your products or services, and another for billing issues. E-mail forwarding software takes emails sent to the email forwarding service first and then your inbox.  You can even use email forwarding software to create temporary, multiple addresses to filter your incoming mail and delete them if they start to receive spam which can protect your main address.

Email forwarding services are also helpful if you employ a virtual assistant or need someone else to check you email while you are away from the office for an extended time. Business mail forwarding services are an especially handy tool for small businesses:

1. Email forwarding allows you to choose your own domain name.

2. You can set up your email forwarding service and customize it for your business needs.

3. You can use email forwarding to customize SPAM filers to keep unwanted mail to a minimum.
