Can i forward mail from a zimbra account

Yes, you can forward mail from a Zimbra account. Here are the steps:

Method 1: Using the Zimbra Web Interface

  1. Log in to your Zimbra account using the web interface.
  2. Click on the gear icon () in the top right corner and select "Settings".
  3. Scroll down to the "Mail" section and click on "Forwarding".
  4. In the "Forwarding" section, you can enter the email address you want to forward your mail to.
  5. Choose the forwarding option you prefer:
    • "Forward to another email address" to forward all incoming mail to another email address.
    • "Forward to a distribution list" to forward all incoming mail to a distribution list.
    • "Forward to a folder" to forward all incoming mail to a specific folder in your Zimbra account.
  6. Click "Save" to save your changes.

Method 2: Using the Zimbra CLI (Command-Line Interface)

  1. Open a terminal or command prompt and connect to your Zimbra server using the CLI.
  2. Use the following command to set up mail forwarding:
    zmprov ma <username> forward <email address>

    Replace <username> with your Zimbra username and <email address> with the email address you want to forward your mail to.

For example:

zmprov ma john.forward [email protected]

This will forward all incoming mail to the email address [email protected].

Method 3: Using a Third-Party Email Client

If you prefer to use a third-party email client like Microsoft Outlook or Mozilla Thunderbird, you can set up mail forwarding using the client's settings. Here's an example:

Remember to check your Zimbra account settings to ensure that mail forwarding is enabled and that you're not exceeding any email forwarding limits set by your Zimbra administrator.
