making a worker to foward a message sent from 1 email to multiple emails

Hello im currently trying to figgure out a way to make a worker forward and email that a email adress recived and foward that to multiple other emails

As im not tha experienced with workers i wanted to ask here what i could use to make that happen

Sure, you can do this via email workers.
If you just wanted a simple forward from one address to multiple:
Add the addresses you want to use as destination addresses within email routing routes tab
Create a new email worker from the Email Workers tab, select create your own, go to Quick Edit and replace with code like

export default {
  async email(message, env, ctx) {
    await message.forward("email1@gmail.com");
    await message.forward("email2@gmail.com");
  }
}

export default {
  async email(message, env, ctx) {
    await message.forward("email1@gmail.com");
    await message.forward("email2@gmail.com");
  }
}

Back in the Email Routing Routes tab, add a new custom address to send to that worker
To test, send an email from an email address other then the two you are forwarding to (otherwise some providers like gmail will delete email they see as duplicates)

Ahh alright so that was the issues i was trying to send it from the email im actually forwarding to lol

Thank you so much this helps a ton

ahh yea that can be confusing. Another potentially confusing thing is that currently Email Workers always show as "Dropped" in the email summary. If your worker errors out, it shows as "Delivery Failed".

Sounds like your worker is erroring out. Check your email summary tab to see if you have delivery failed, or tail your worker before you send an email.
If I had to blindly guess, you probably are trying to forward to non-verified destinations, or some other runtime error

i'll take a look at it

Nbc66OP•3/21/23, 3:31 PM

looks like this is the main error

Chaika•3/21/23, 3:31 PM

Well that's not the actual error, it's just saying something is wrong with your Worker

Chaika•3/21/23, 3:32 PM

In the dashboard, if you navigate to your Worker and then the "Logs" tab, start log stream, send an email, and you should see the actual error

Ok looks like i cant actually specify emails from cloudflaer itself but i have to use the verified email

Nbc66OP•3/21/23, 3:44 PM

But i guess it works thank you for the help

Chaika•3/21/23, 3:46 PM

Yea, you need to add each email you want to forward to as destination addresses in email routing and verify them

Nbc66OP•3/21/23, 3:48 PM

I mean as in i cant specify a routed email as in an example nbc66@customdomain.com that fowards to nbc66@someemail.com

Nbc66OP•3/21/23, 3:51 PM

I guess i can send another requst to my allredy routed email from the email i made on cloudflaer lol

Nbc66OP•3/21/23, 3:53 PM

But hey it works thank you again for the help
