This how to article pertains to M3Admin 6, server control panel.
If you want to create an email address that is forwarded or routed to another email account on your server, just follow these steps.
Note: Forwarding of email to remote servers has been depreciated in M3 Admin version 6.*
* Forwarding email also forwards spam which the remote email server will identify your server as a spam source and blacklist your server’s ip with the spam filter community. All modern mail clients, even gmail/yahoo, allow for checking email via multiple pop3/imap hosts. This is by far safer.
Login to your server’s M3Admin Control Panel and click on Email Management.

REPEAT STEP 1 FOR ALL NEEDED EMAIL ACCOUNTS REGARDING THIS EMAIL ADDRESS

Once your changes are in place, click update.
Verify your changes are as desired, click confirm to save your changes. Changes are instantly available and ready for service.
