Does Webmail Pro perform mail forwarding?

With WebMail Pro, you can forward or redirect a message by clicking the corresponding button in toolbar when viewing this message.

Forwarding multiple messages within a single message is not yet supported.

Actually, what I was referring to is not forwarding a single message manually to another person.

I was talking about having messages forwarded automaically to an alternate email address. For instance, if I want mail forwarded to my hotmail account from my WEBMail Pro address. Can this be done?

I see a redirect button when I open an email meesage. What is this for?

Automatic forwarding should be a mail server feature, not webmail's one. Webmail software has no way of knowing of when new messages arrive. Due to the same reason, it's not possible to implement autoresponder, etc unless someone writes a service that will request, let's say, get_mail.asp every minute automatically (which is quite impractical). Otherwise, mails won't be processed until the user logs in and clicks "Get Mail" in WebMail Pro. This is because the mail server never notifies WebMail Pro that a new message arrived.

It behaves exactly the same as Redirect feature in desktop mail clients. It resends the mail to the specified email address without any modifications.
