How can I forward an email for an account and keep a local copy? Or is this not possible?

This should be the standard behavior if you set up a forwarder.

 

Create email-address and corresponding account.

Go to addresses (log in or select the user, not admin) and select addresses

Edit the mail-address

Create Forwarder

Type in the desired forward-address

 

Now you should get the mails on the original account and the forwarded account.

Is this what you want?

That's exactly what I want :-)

 

It is not mentioned that a local copy will be kept by default - thanks for the hint.

 

I figured out that a forward only account can be realised by changing the entry in the database table "mail_virtual". By default there are two entries in the field destination: the local e-mail-address and the forwarding address. If you delete the local address you get a forwarding only e-mail-account.

Good to know too !
