2. In the right menu, click Mail.
3. Click the + Create Email Address button.
4. Fill out the form as follows:

• Email address: enter the first part of the email address.

(Example: for jansen@voorbeeld.it, enter jansen only.)

• Can be used to log in to Plesk: check if you want the user to manage settings (optional).
• External email address: optional, for password recovery.
• Password: choose a strong password (recommended: at least 16 characters, uppercase, lowercase, numbers, symbols).
• Confirm password: re-enter the chosen password.
• Mailbox: uncheck this if you want only forwarding.

5. Go to the Forwarding tab:

• Check Activate mail forwarding.
• Enter the email address(es) (one per line) to which incoming messages should be forwarded.

6. Finally, click OK.

The email forwarder has now been successfully created.

• Spam filters may treat forwarded emails more strictly.
• You can partially avoid this by creating a full mailbox for the address.
