the address where you want to send forwarded messages. Type in the address as pictured here.

 

If you want to keep a copy of Forwarded messages in THIS email, click the “Keep a copy

you’re forwarding to may have requirements for receiving forwarded email messages.  Consult the “Help”

resource of that service.
