| Mail Forwarding | When you sign up for an Link2CITY.com hosting plan, you will receive a domain email account (you@yourname.com -- actually you will get an infinite amount of these). You might also have an email address provided by your local ISP. With mail forwarding, all email addressed to you@yourname.com will be sent to your other email address. Additional mail forwarding options include the ability to forward different yourname.com email to specific addresses on the Internet. For example, email addressed to webmaster@yourname.com could forward to your real email address (provided by your ISP), while sales@yourname.com could forward to a different email address or your mail box on our system. |
