Email Forwarding @rogers.com email address

[themysteryone]

Hi Everyone...

I am looking for the option to forward a @rogers.com email address, but to no avail.

When I log into the rogers.yahoo.com web portal, the option to forward your email has disappeared. 

Can someone confirm this?  I know if you had pre-set email forwarding, prior to January 2021, the option is still there, I believe.  But after that, the option is gone. 

Can @RogersCorey perhaps assist with this?  

Thanks...!

Hi @themysteryone!

Thank you for your post. Rogers Yahoo mail no longer supports the forwarding feature.

Yahoo supports the auto-forwarding feature for the Yahoo Mail pro clients. However, a pro version is not available for @rogers.com emails.

Thank you for your understanding!

There you have it, Rogers Email customers can not forward their emails.  hope that answers your question

Good Morning.   

Can I simply express my displeasure at this change to a longstanding feature of Rogers email.   I find the removal of a standard email feature, and the fact that, to the best of my knowledge, there was no communications about this - fully unacceptable.     I appreciate the "Thank you for your understanding!"  but I am not understanding.    

Perhaps this is rooted in the evolving relationship[ between Rogers and Yahoo (since that feature remains an option for Yahoo clients), but can only encourage Rogers to consider an alternate email platform... one that is fully featured.

What a joke Rogers has become.  Seriously, do the executives of this company have no shame.  Can't forward email, can't use Outlook as an email client any longer.  What a joke.

Tim, hahaha I needed this laugh today "but I am not understanding."

Can't use Apple Mail either. No notice....just the change.

Hello,
As a Rogers customers, I believe the forwarding option must be included in our Rogers.com. I understand why yahoo may not provide this option to its subscribers, but as a customer, I am entitled to have this option. I hope somebody listens an make the mail forwarding option available. Thanks

Actually, Yahoo does offer this as an option if you are a paid (Premium) subscriber.  Rogers/Yahoo! does not.  Rogers is unlikely to spend any more money on e-mail and I believe the writing for Rogers e-mail is on the wall, even if it might take years - see link below.

I am not only replacing my rogers.com email account, but also, switching my mobile and internet services to a different provider.

@samzarei : Are you going to be using the e-mail of your new service provider, or going with a third party service like Gmail or Yahoo! (not Rogers/Yahoo!)?  If the former, you may end up in the same predicament, so the latter is recommended, so that you can easily switch providers or move your location.

Gmail and Hotmail both support mail forwarding. That is what I am going with till they don't.
