All our domain names registered at KartHost come with Free Email Forwarding (along with Free Domain Forwarding). Here is how to set that service up in your KartHost Customer Center Account. Remember Email Forwarders are NOT mailboxes, they are only email addresses that you can use to forward emails sent to them to "Forward" to any email mailbox on the internet.

Note: If you have email KloudEmail Service, you will not be able to use this Free Email Forwarding Service. You will use the more advanced KloudEmail Email Alias System using Professional Mail or Exchange List service if using Exchange.

1) You must be logged into the KartHost Customer Center (Introduction to the KartHost Customer Center). Once logged in click on "Domains" > from the drop down menu click "My Domains".
