Hi everyone, I hope I can get an answer to this. I have an email address with hostmonster and I would like to have it set up so any incoming email would also be automatically sent to another email address (one that I check more often). Is there a way to do this? Thanks in advance for any help.

In Cpanel under mail click on forwarders.
Set up a forwarder with your domain mail (at HM) and the destination (any valid eMail) - VOILA!
You can also use this for an eMail account that does not exist. I.e. you create a forwarder and the incoming eMail get to the forwarded account only and there is no need to check/empty the account. I use this to forward (non-existing) "webmaster", "info", "postmaster" mail to the main account admin@mydomain.com.
If you have a lot of forwarding to set up try the import of a CSV or EXCEL file (note to have it old format - .xls to be recognized)
Hope it works for you.

Would the solution proposed by EMStatay above "also" keep the email in the original inbox as well as forward it to the forwarded account?

Hello Gary325:
Yes, the "original" purpose of the forwarder is to forward a copy of the eMail to another account while keeping it ALSO in the account which was addressed.
option one
(you have already or create an eMail Address, e.g. [email]email@yourhostmonsterdomain.exists)
ADD a forwarder FROM email@yourhostmonsterdomain.exists TO the address where you like to receive copies.
BOTH addresses receive copies (email@yourhostmonsterdomain.exists will fill up)
You MAY add a forwarder to more than one address if you like.
option two
ADD a forwarder FROM [email]email@yourhostmonsterdomain.notcreated TO the address where you like to receive the email.
The email is accepted as if the account exists and forwarded to the designated address without leaving a second copy anywhere.

Ya thank you but for some mails i does not working can you tell me another solution
Please see the two different scenarios in the reply to gary325 below. If it is not working for you the reasons can be:
Destination eMail for the copy is not valid (spelling error or non-existent account or over quota (full) destination account).
= Permanent failure.
Some sending IP address (i.e. from hostmonster mail server) may be blacklisted and trigger a rejection at the receiving eMail server (it has happened to me with send eMail to yahoo.com and finding that the hostmonster ip was blocked by yahoo due to spamming activities of one user. You can check if this is the case by sending an eMail from you hostmonster account to the destination address as a test. If this problem exists you will get a reply eMail saying that your message was blocked. The forwarder itself will not receive these error messages, so it may help to see if there is such a situation.
= failure with some destinations but not all ...
