    Forwarding email accounts - what did I do wrong?

    I'm trying to setup a forwarder for my college class, so everyone can email one address, and the emails will auto forward to each account.

    So I setup one account classname@mydomain.com

    Then I setup the forwards via the email section

    classname@mydomain.com --> student01@theiremail.com
    classname@mydomain.com --> student02@theiremail.com
    classname@mydomain.com --> student03@theiremail.com

    This should cause them to get any email I sent to classname@mydomain.com

    right? Or did I forget something here? The email account Im mailing to is setup, it shows the mail in there (via squirrelmail) but it doesn't seem to be forwarding. So did I miss something? Or shall I submit Mr. Trouble Ticket.

    **Edit 1
    I added my own work email address to the list, and I got the email. So for some oddball reason I don't even see it. But if I email straight from the account, it goes thru. Urgh.

    Well, it appears to go to every email account but my own gmail account. No idea why it does that though. Argh.

        i actually have the same problem...

        my clients have several individual email accounts set up on the domains i'm hosting...

        they dont know how to use the web interface or outlook etc. so i set up forwarders for their emails to be forwarded to their hotmail.com accounts.

        the problem is that the emails will not forward with the forwarder alone... they need to have the account set up which they dont check to delete emails and gets full and causes emails to bounce eventually...

        any thoughts?
