View Full Version : Email forwarding

Well here are 3 things I'm hoping people will comment on, relating to email.


It would be nice if there were a way to "modify" a forwarded email. At present, the only way to "modify" one is to delete the original and then create the new version of it. :( This is acceptable for 1 or 2, but if you have 10-20 it becomes quite time consuming. Has this been others' experience as well?
It would be nice if the email forwarding entries were grouped together, such as by domain name, rather than just alphabetically by "user name". As above, this may be fine for only a few email forwards, but when you get quite a few, it becomes cumbersome, and more prone to making mistakes, such as wanting to "modify" an entry, which requires you to delete the entry and recreate it (see above entry), but you accidently hit delete on the wrong entry. Does anyone else want this kind (or any kind) of grouping?
What is the reason for having the add-on domains presented as prefixes to the main domain, as they are in various lists, such as for email forwarding? Do enough people use these that they are the *default*? By way of an example: if I have MAIN.com and I also have SECONDARY.com and TERCIARY.com (both as add-on domains to MAIN.com), I would only want to be presented with the domains: MAIN.com, SECONDARY.com, and TERCIARY.com, not additionally: SECONDARY.MAIN.com and TERCIARY.MAIN.com. Who would ever use these? :confused:


As I understand these criticisms may be due to limitations of cPanel, but it seems that these would be desirable interface changes.

Let me know if I'm the only one who thinks this way......

Kosh;

You are correct these are all due to the design of CPanel, you might try suggesting such things through their channels.

Is it possible to have the email from the account that is being forwarded deleted automatically?
