Accessing AT&T Mail

Using a Web Browser Using the AT&T Yahoo! Browser Using the Yahoo! Toolbar Using a Client Application Forwarding Incoming Mail

Forwarding Incoming Mail

AT&T Mail allows you to forward messages that come to your AT&T Mail account to another email address—even another AT&T Mail address. If you enable email forwarding, all email addressed to your AT&T Mail account automatically goes to your forwarding address and does not appear in your AT&T Mail Inbox at all. (Messages that came into your mailbox before you turned on email forwarding, however, do remain in your account.)

The AT&T Mail server sends forwarded messages to another address. Email clients cannot access forwarded messages.

Tip: The POP access and forwarding features can’t be used at the same time. While your mail is being forwarded to a different account, you won’t be able to access new mail with a POP mail client application from the AT&T Mail server.

 

Here’s How

  1. In a browser, go to the POP Access and Forwarding page. (Remind me how.)

  2. On the POP Access and Forwarding page, make sure that the radio button next to the Forwarding option is selected.

    Select the Forwarding option and type the forwarding email address.

  3. Type the email address to which you want to forward your AT&T Mail.

  4. Click the Save button at the bottom of the page to save the changes to your AT&T Mail account.

  5. You may be asked to verify the forwarding email address that you have typed. If so, follow the onscreen instructions for verification.

What’s Next

To turn off mail forwarding, return to the POP Access and Forwarding page, clear the email address box, and select the Web & POP Access option instead of the Forwarding option.
