I have a website hosted in a shared hosting account and it contains a DirectAdmin (DA) control panel. From there, I can see some email forwarding entries.
I would like
to migrate the email server
to the Google App's, I am going
to change the MX records
to point
to Google email server in the DA. For the existing email accounts that I see in the DA, I will re-create them in the Google App.
But for those email forwarding entries, I am confused. If I keep them there, will they still work after I have changed the MX record pointing
to the Google email server? If not, this means I will need
to re-create them in the Google App, right?
Unfortunately, Google App (Free edition) does not seem
to allow email forwarding like those in DA. Unless I choose
to use other editons (http://www.google.com/support/a/bin/answer.py?answer=175745).
In DA, when I have created an email forwarding entry such as
[email protected] -
[email protected], I do not really need
to create a dummy
[email protected] email account and DA will still do the forwarding properly.
The best I can do now, without upgrading the Google App edition, is
to simply create dummy email accounts in the Google App and setup forwarding inside that email account, is this correct?
