own domain - Email Domain Forwarders

[dom39]

Not Working!

I added my own domain to my free hosting account.

I have changed the name servers there both correct checked more than twice.

I go Mail, then Forwarders, Email Domain Forwarders, Add Domain Forwarder, entered the email address I want my domain email to goto then press Add Domain Forwarder button =

"All email sent to dominicnaylor.com will now be copied to *********@*****l.com Warning, changing default address for dominicnaylor.com since an email address was specified instead of a domain name."

Press Go Back

and it's not been added "There are no Domain Forwarders setup for this domain."

plus dont work!

Domain forwarder should be used to set up something like dominicnaylor.com -> anotherdomain.com, you can NOT use it to set dominicnaylor.com -> myemail@anotherdomain.com

I have personally not tested the option though.

thats a shame if thats the case, but when I enter text into the empty text box on the Add a new Domain Forwarder page it says "Please enter either an email address or a hostname"

so dominicnaylor.com -> myemail@anotherdomain.com should work as it says email address.

ok, like I said, I never tested it. I'll test it out a bit on my test account.

Believe that setting an email would actually make it do what it says, set a default email and not a proper domain forwarder that would be listed there.

ADD:
I tested it out, and if "default address" is enabled for the server, adding an email address under domain forwarders does in fact change that setting and list it under that category. Since "default address" is disabled on free hosting, setting an email address in that field has no impact on anything.

oh thats a big shame.

So how do I catch all email and forward it?
