Mail auto forward

Mail auto-forwarding is a feature that allows you to forward incoming emails from one email address to another email address. This can be useful in various situations, such as:

  1. Changing email addresses: When you change your email address, you can auto-forward your old email address to your new one, ensuring that you don't miss any important emails.
  2. Managing multiple email addresses: If you have multiple email addresses, you can auto-forward emails from one address to another, making it easier to manage your emails.
  3. Redirecting emails: If you're going on a trip or taking a break, you can auto-forward your emails to a temporary email address or a colleague's email address.
