Common Issues and Pitfalls
Incorrect Email Address: Ensure the forwarding email address is correct to avoid losing emails.
Server Configuration: Make sure your server settings allow for email forwarding. Some configurations might restrict forwarding to external addresses.
Spam Filters: Forwarded emails might be marked as spam by the recipient’s email provider. Ensure proper SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records are set up.
Best Practices for Reliability and Security
Use Strong Passwords: Ensure all email accounts have strong, unique passwords to prevent unauthorized access.
Monitor Forwarding: Regularly check that forwarding is working correctly and that no emails are being lost.
Security Settings: Enable SSL/TLS for email communications to ensure data is encrypted during transmission.
Backup Emails: Keep backups of important emails in case something goes wrong with the forwarding setup.
