There are two kinds of forwards
1. Email Account Forward: You can forward an existing email account to another address
2. Forward/Alias: You can skip the email set-up and create an email forward by clicking Create Email Forward / Alias in your email admin menu.

Creating A Mail Forward/Alias
- If you don't want to bother creating an actual email address, you can simply select "Create a New Email Forward / Alias" from the Email Admin Menu.
- Name it and choose where to forward it to.
- There is little difference, between changing an email into a forward and creating a forward from scratch. The only difference is that you cannot store a copy of your mail on the server with an Alias / Forward.
