Default Is it possible to forward your e mails to another address?

As above I work from home a lot and this is my only e mail address. I will be moving house shortly and will lose my PC for a week or so. Is there any way I can bounce my e mails onto my friends address so I can pick them up there?

Many thanks

Hello

If it's 'proper' email (with an exchange server) then you can do it in outlook.

If your mail is via an ISP, it depends on the ISP. With mine, I can log into the webmail service and redirect my mail.

Do Tiscali provide a webmail interface? If so then you can use that, regardless of where you are. OK, maybe not as fully featured as Outlook, and you may not have access to your old emails (depends on whether you have your current account setup to store mail on the server for a period of time) but you can at least read/send emails.

Also, if they do have a webmail interface, you may be able to set an autoforward on through that interface.

Or why don't you just setup an account on your friend's machine that downloads the emails, but leaves them on the server. Then when yours is back up and running, you can download them all permanently onto yours.

Outlook doesn't do any forwarding, it just tells the server. Remove Outlook from any forwarding equation

Call your ISP if you can't find an obvious (webmail) way, it's a simple thing for them to do. It has to be done server side, no exceptions.

Tiscali DO have a webmail interface.

It would be much easier to use that than forward to a friend I would imagine.
