Forward Email: email and account recovery

Forward Email presents itself as an open-source forwarding service for custom domains. Forwarding is not an end-to-end encrypted inbox: the message arrives in the destination you choose.

The address that receives the links

Before you change providers, note the accounts whose reset mail arrives in the current inbox. The new address does not move them by itself.

What this page does not measure

The custom domain must be yours, and the DNS records must be yours. A bad forward can lose mail without a visible error.

SecuFocus did not send a real message with this service. Open a trial account, receive one reset link, and only then move an important address.
