Send One Mailbox to Many Addresses in Plesk

What is Plesk?

Plesk is a control panel, a web page where you manage your hosting. Some hosting plans use Plesk, and some use cPanel. Ask Hostvento support whether Plesk is on your plan.

Email redirect, or forwarding, means a message sent to one address is also sent to others. It is like a post office that makes copies of your letter for several homes.

Steps

1. Log in to Plesk.
2. Click Mail in the left menu. In newer versions it may sit under your domain's tabs.
3. Click the email address you want to change.
4. Open the Forwarding tab.
5. Tick Enable mail forwarding.
6. In the box Forward to, type the target addresses. Put one address on each line.
7. Choose if the mailbox should still keep a copy. Look for the option that keeps a copy of the message in the mailbox.
8. Click OK or Apply to save.

Plesk may limit how many targets you can add. If you hit a limit, make a mailing group, as shown below.

Use a mail group for a bigger list

A mail group is one address that delivers to many people.

1. Go to Mail.
2. Open the tab named Mail Groups, or Email Aliases and Groups in some versions.
3. Click Add Mail Group.
4. Type a group name, for example team.
5. Add the members. You can add addresses on your domain or outside it.
6. Click OK.

Mail sent to team@yourdomain.com now reaches all members.

Test it

1. Send a mail to the forwarded address from another account.
2. Ask the receivers to check inbox and spam folders.

Stop forwarding

1. Return to the Forwarding tab.
2. Untick Enable mail forwarding.
3. Click OK.
