 Points to remember for Email Forwarding: 

• Email Forwarding cannot be enabled for POP accounts.
• While an Admin is enabling email forwarding for a user, a maximum of 3 destination accounts can be added.
• Similarly, a maximum of 3 destination accounts can be added by the users themselves.
• A total of 6 forward addresses, 3 by the Admin, and 3 by the user can be added.
• Filter-based forwarding cannot be enabled to the same email address, which has already been added for Email Forwarding. 
• If the Email Forwarding fails ten times consecutively, the email forwarding will be automatically disabled. 
• If the received email, is an already auto-forwarded email, it will not be forwarded again to avoid looping. 

Email Forwarding - Verification

Once you add the destination email address for auto-forwarding, you need to proceed with the verification process.

In the destination account specified, you will receive an email with a verification code to confirm the Email Forwarding process. In case the source account and the destination account holders are different, send the email with the verification code to the source account holder to complete the verification process. Once the verification code is obtained, follow these steps in the source account. 

1. Login to your Zoho Mail source account and navigate to Settings ​
2. Go to Mail Accounts. You will find a list of accounts you have configured under your Zoho Mail account.​
3. Select the account for which you want to verify the Forwarding address.
4. Under the Forwards section, you will find a list of email addresses you added for email forwarding.
5. Click the Verify icon next to the respective email address.
   
6. Provide the confirmation code you received at the given email address.
7. Once done, click Confirm and save the settings.
8. In case you did not receive the verification code, click Resend option to receive the verification code again in the destination address. 

Disable/Delete Email Forwarding

2. Go to Mail Accounts. You will find a list of accounts you have configured under your Zoho Mail account.​
3. Select the account for which you want to disable/delete a Forwarding address.
4. Under the Forwards section, you will find a list of email addresses you added for email forwarding.

6. If you want to remove a Forwarding address, click the Delete icon.
   

Filter based Email Forwarding

You can forward only some emails based on certain conditions, using the filter-based forwarding feature. You can set up conditions based on senders or subjects and forward emails to another person. This will be particularly useful, when you want to forward only specific emails to another account, based on a specified set of rules or conditions. 

1. Login to Zoho Mail in the source account
2. Go to Settings ​
3. Navigate to Filters > New Filter
4. Provide the conditions or rules you want to specify.
5. In the Action, select Forward to and specify the email address
   
6. In case you are newly adding an email address, you need to verify the email address
7. Click Save to save the settings. 

For the incoming emails, which match the specified conditions, the emails will be forwarded to the email address, after the verification process. 'Run through Filters' option is not applicable for filters with 'Forwarding' as an action.

Accept a forwarding request

When a user from Zoho Mail configures an email address for auto-forwarding emails either manually or via filters, the destination account holder will receive a confirmation email with a verification code. 

This verification code should be used to authorize the forwarding from the account of the Zoho Mail user's source account. Refer here for the steps followed for verifying a forward address.
