Updating Email Forwarding Preferences for Domain Names with Privacy
Domains By Proxy® (DBP) creates a unique email address for each domain name with private registration. Click here to see the difference between your email address and the one DBP creates for you. You can set your DBP account to forward your email without filtering it, filter it for spam and then forward it to you, or not forward it at all. By default, DBP filters spam and forwards email messages to the email address you enter on the Customer Information page.
On the Default Email Preference page, you can update the default email forwarding preference for all domain names in your DBP account. You can also set an email forwarding preference for a single domain name from the Private Domains tab. If you set a preference for a single domain name, it overrides the default preference.
