I am surprised that sieve cannot forward an incoming email to an external address @ another server.

it is crazy for a paid account to not be able to forward to another email address.
the "you can configure bridge and do it in your mailprogram"-solution is unreliable, because i need a machine constantly fetching and forwarding mails.
actually, i am a bit shocked. shouldn't this be a pretty basic feature?

Exactly the same use-case as Mathieu, but I did the switch and hopefully, I set up a catch-all and now I’m noticing that I’m getting the mail of my wife... and I there is no way to set up a rule at the moment to forward automatically and delete.
The best way is to implement redirection as explained by Mathieu.Thanks is advance!

As said in https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/284483-feedback/suggestions/32738530-auto-forward
+3 on this
Exple usecase :
I registered myname.net at myRegistrar
I use it for all my family members : me, 3 childs, sister, mom and dad.
Actually, my DNS configuration, have MX records handled by myRegistrar mail servers and I have set those forwarding addresses :
me@myname.net forwards to me@gmail.com
child1@myname.net forwards to child1@gmail.com (idem for child2 and child 3, you get the idea)
sister@myname.net forwards to sister@otherprovider.com (idem for mom and dad)Now I want to say "goodbye Google, hello ProtonMail" for me and my childs but not for my sister and parents. Their mails, their choice.
With a Visionary account if I set the MX records to ProtonMail servers I can have my childs and my addresses managed by ProtonMail but I can't keep the forward for my sister and parents towards thier email providers.
I won't say to my family "you can no longer use our family domain name, cause I decided to quit Google"
So I can't use ProtonMail for now, too bad :/Please, it seems this is a long time request, put it on your roadmap, you're loosing customers !

I also need it for stupid things like parcel tracking services. It's really annoying to manually forward the shipping information to third party apps

I'd like to be able to create a filter that automatically forwards the received e-mails that respect pre-determined criteria, just as I can create filters that flag incoming e-mails.

With or without PGP encryption?

Rodney POWELL commented
Can you please add a feature enabling Filters to forward a copy of messages to another designated email address ?

Taylor Bowden commented
Don't know if it's possible, but the ability to check box of emails without reading them and forward them to other people.

I don't see a feature for forwarding my Proton emails to another email service provider.

I am paying for a mail service and I expect a functional at least basic mail service. Mail redirect rules is a basic email server's functionality that I greatly need. I'm waiting for this feature with Proton before I purchase additional custom domains support.
