Overview

Email forwarding lets you have a professional address (haojun@ontheground.agency) that just forwards to your real inbox. Free with Namecheap; takes 5 minutes to set up.

Setup

Domain List → Manage → Redirect Email → Add Forwarder. Map @yourdomain to your real email. Add as many aliases as you want.

Limitations

You can receive but not send from the address (without extra setup). Best for contact forms and outreach replies; not for daily mail.

Upgrade path

When you want to actually send from the address, set up Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 (~US$6-7/user/month). Or use Resend for transactional sending (free tier covers most SMBs).
