How to Forward Outgoing Mail

Email programs usually come in a few different types. POP3, HTTP and SMTP. Internet-based email programs store your email on a remote server that you can access by logging into a website or server. You can also install email software which routes all of your email to a program on your computer so you can view it all at the same time instead of logging on to several different accounts. Microsoft Outlook and Mac Mail are both email software.

Instructions

1. Log in to your email account, either on the Internet or through your email software.

2. Select the email you would like to forward and open it by double clicking on it, in most cases.

3. Click on the “Forward” button. It may be in the same window as the open email, in the case of email software. If not, it may be at either at the bottom or top of the email for a Web or server-based email.

4. Enter the email addresses of the people you want to forward the email to. Separate each email address with a comma. Press “Send.”
