What is ImprovMX? ImprovMX offers an email forwarding service. What it basically does is catch all emails that arrive at your domain, for example, all emails that arrive at @joodi.me will be redirected to another email that I informed.

So let's learn how to do this? The configuration process at ImprovMX is very quick and easy, just access their website which you can open by clicking here .

Right from the start you will come across this section where you enter your domain and the email to which you will be redirected:
