In my Google Apps account I have only one user: admin@example.com
. How can I configure Google Apps to forward emails for info@example.com
to admin@example.com
?
I would not recommend either of the ways listed by Ankur Mhatre. Creating another account is an admin headache (not to mention the cost) and the catch-all is not recommended by Google because it can lead to increased incidents of spam.
Instead you should either create a nickname for admin@ :

Or create a group with admin@ as a member:

Generally, if the mail sent to info@ only ever needs to go to admin@ use a nickname. If you have multiple users who need to receive mail from info@ use the groups.

Sorry it took me until now to respond. Yes - this is what I was looking for and is indeed the correct approach. – Jared Eitnier Dec 18 '13 at 15:08
Here's another method, which also allows to forward to any email inside and outside of the organization, without creating an account:
- Apps > Google Apps > Gmail > Advanced settings
- Routing > Recipient address map
- Hover and click
CONFIGURE
on the right
The dialog is very simple, don't think it warrants a step-by-step.
There are two ways
Way 1
Create an account for info@domain.com and then forward all emails to admin@domain.com from settings of info@domain.com
Way 2
Make admin@domain.com as default address through your admin panel
You can refer this for creating default address (catch-all address) https://support.google.com/a/answer/33962?hl=en

Thanks, I created a catch-all. Not exactly what I wanted but close enough. – Jared Eitnier Nov 28 '13 at 14:06

@Weehooey has the right answer - this would be too costly and inefficient. – Jared Eitnier Dec 18 '13 at 15:09
