  3. Enter Forwarding Address: In the forwarding settings section, you will need to enter the email address where you want your RR emails to be forwarded. This could be another personal email address or a business email address, depending on your preference.

Verifying the Forwarding Setup

  1. Send a Test Email: To confirm that your forwarding settings are working correctly, send a test email to your RR email address from another account. Check the inbox of your forwarding address to ensure the email has been redirected successfully.

Additional Tips
