An error while adding forwarders? - Page 2

Spikey · September 6th, 2008, 4:28 PM

im guessing yahoo is also on the cronjobs list of emails to delete too Step27 I know hotmail/msn is as I found that out when I attempted to set forwarders up for my site staff

maybe surpass should mention about not being allowed to forward to certain domains maybe pre-signup I believe the old surpass site just said email forwarders but the new site doesnt make any mention of them now at all (though you still get them

)

as for your problem Step27 I would put a ticket into support as that message sounds like a server error which you wont be able to correct yourself

anyway hope that helps!

Forwarding to these services can get your server on SPAM block lists faster than you can say "boo". So, do not do so. In fact, forwarding in general is just something you should not do, unless you are forwarding to your own accounts.

If you get, for example, a forwarded message to your GMAIL account and that message is SPAM, you MUST NOT! tell gmail it is spam, or YOUR server, the one that FORWARDED the message, will be flagged by Gmail as a probable spam sender....

Good point. I only use forwarders for fake email addresses so I don't have to use my real one. For example, myspace

robmonroe.net forwards to my real address. So if I get a lot of spam to that address, I just change the forwarder to something new.
