# Forward email to another address

Forwarding sends email for an address on to one or more other addresses. The address doesn’t need its own email account.

## Faster: let an AI app do it

If you’ve connected Inleed to an AI app, just write what you want done, for example:

> Forward info@example.se to anna@example.se

Done. Email to info@example.se is forwarded to anna@example.se.

## Good to know
