I have several email accounts with different services, and I used them to test Fastmail forwarding before I made my first post here. All email from my own accounts to Fastmail was forwarded as I expected. None of the email I have received in Fastmail from the businesses for which I set up my Fastmail aliases has been forwarded. There may be variables I don’t understand, but it seems that using my own email accounts to test Fastmail forwarding has limited value.
I understand from your post that my Fastmail settings may not be correct.
I was not aware there are “old” and “new” ways of creating rules. I’ve had my Fastmail account for only a few days, and it seems what I'm trying to do is more complicated that I expected. To create my forwarding rule, I selected “Filters & Rules” from the Settings menu, then clicked Create Rule and followed the prompts. I neglected to click on “Switch to no-preview rules (regular expressions supported)”. I’ll fix that oversight, and I’ll post again when I have more results.
Thanks for your help.
