In the E-mail Management section, there are two options that don't seem to work for me, even though I'm familiar with them and have used similar functions before. These two are:
- Default E-mail
- Aliases / Forwarding
I tried setting the default e-mail (or catch-all e-mail account) to forward to this other e-mail account I have with GMail. But when I tried it, the e-mail I sent to a non-existent e-mail ending with @my-astahost-domain wasn't forwarded to my GMail account. I tried it a couple of times, but still nothing.
So I thought that I'd try it another way... So I went to set-up an e-mail alias in the Aliases / Forwarding which let's say is me@my-astahost-domain, and configured it to forward to my GMail account. But again, when I tried it, nothing went to my GMail account.
At that point, I concluded that there was probably something with the forwarding service from the server side itself. And so to confirm this, I created a normal e-mail account in cPanel, let's call it myname@my-astahost-domain, and tried sending e-mail to it. It worked beautifully and promptly
. Then, I went to the Aliases / Forawrding section, and made another rule that would forward e-mail directed to the myname@my-astahost-domain address to my GMail account. And when I tried sending an e-mail to it, the myname received the e-mail with no problems, but it didn't forward it to my GMail.So I think there might be something wrong with the forwarding service here. Perhaps a moderator could take a look at this, please?
Thanks a lot in advance.
...Alright now, I'm not sure exactly what I did or even whether I did anything... But everything seems to be working beautifully now.
