Configuring Email Forwarding in GoDaddy

Updated over 2 months ago

Hey there!

Ready to set up email forwarding with GoDaddy? Let's walk through it together, step by step.

Why Set Up Email Forwarding?

Imagine you have multiple email addresses but want all your messages in one place.

Email forwarding helps by sending copies of incoming emails from one address to another. It's like having all your mail delivered to a single mailbox, making life simpler.

Steps to Set Up Email Forwarding in GoDaddy:

  1. Log In to Your GoDaddy Account:

  2. Access Your Email & Office Dashboard:

    • Once logged in, find the "My Products" section.

    • Look for "Email & Office" and click on "Manage" next to the email account you want to set up forwarding for.

  3. Navigate to Forwarding Settings:

    • In the dashboard, you'll see a menu on the left. Click on "Forwards."

  4. Add a Forwarding Address:

    • Click on "Add Forward."

    • Enter the forwarding address you want to create. This is the new email address that will forward messages to your main inbox.

    • In the "Forward To" field, type the email address where you want to receive these forwarded emails.
      ​

  5. Save Your Settings:

    • After entering the details, click "Save."
      ​

A Few Things to Keep in Mind:

  • Unique Forwarding Addresses: Make sure the forwarding address you create isn't already in use.

  • Multiple Forwarding Addresses: If you want to forward emails to more than one address, separate each email with a comma.

  • Storage Considerations: Remember, forwarded emails might still be stored in the original inbox, which could count toward your storage limit.
