Forward a copy automatically to another email address

[PierreClementCazon]

Hi,

Congratulations for the work done on this webmail!
How to automatically transmit all emails received on one email address to another email address?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi Pierre,

RainLoop is a webmail interface, so that isn't something you would setup in there.

If you need to regularly forward messages from one email address to another, you should set that up on the email address that needs to be transferred.
I'll use Google as an example, but the same concept works for any other email, where you can setup to forward all emails to another email address, and then either delete the local copy or also leave a copy on Google.

RainLoop could have controls to allow you to do it via the interface, while in reality changing a setting on the back-end email server, but it would be very difficult to implement and manage, because there are so many different email servers and they don't all work the same way.

I hope that helps,

Ivan

Would still be very useful to change a setting for the more common back ends to forward all emails to another address, and optionally keep emails. As a plugin, could make several versions for the more common implementations. Also, its a useful feature for the end-user when they go on vacation or use another email account as their main one.
