Title: Forwarding with Deleting messages in Horde?
Post by: Drake on August 09, 2011, 10:13:04 PM
Is it possible to forward email in Horde without leaving a copy on the server?  Like receive message at A@domain and forward that to B@domain without leaving a message in A@domain?

dont think you can. you should try using pop email like outlook, it has an option to not leave any messages behind when it gets the messages. i use it and it works great

actually you can..

just create an alias... setup a forward to forward A@domain.com to B@domain.com... however dont setup the A@domain.com email account. this way, there will be no mail stored on A@domain.com, but when emails are sent to A@domain.com, they will still be sent to b@domain.com..

the forwarders can be setup in the cpanel(site admin panel link in member zone)

this is what i did for one of my accounts on horde.

on my other account, which is on smartmail, they have their own Alias option...


EDIT: yea, i agree with manbearpig.. i would rather use pop than forward

Use alias like xeis said. Its really useful when you have many email accounts like contact@, info@, sales@ and you are the only person checking them. I turn them into alias and then only need to check that one account they all forward to. Yes, I am lazy  :P
