How to delete a domain forwarder in cPanel Print

  • 4

Quick answer

Delete only the intended domain-forwarding rule to stop that mapping. Removing a forwarder does not remove the separate source mailbox or domain registration.

Applies to

For an authorized mailbox user. Interactive Online manages settings only for mail hosted on the selected service; mail hosted elsewhere uses that provider's settings. The preserved lesson shows an earlier interface.

Steps

  1. Open the intended application or account and confirm its complete mailbox address and provider.
  2. Open Email > Forwarders, locate the exact domain rule and preserve its source/destination details. Select Delete, then confirm Delete Domain Forwarder for that rule.

Check the result

Confirm the rule is absent and test expected local delivery. Check whether separate address-level forwarders still apply.

Troubleshooting and support

For a missing tool or limit error, confirm the selected service and enabled features. For a delivery problem, check the actual mail provider and routing before changing unrelated DNS or passwords.

Contact support from the owning account with the domain, product/version, exact error, time/time zone and redacted evidence. Exclude credentials, session URLs, payment details and private customer records. Confirm any separate application-support scope.
