  Hello, I’m sorry to hear that you are having trouble with your website. However, your site is not hosted with WordPress.com. It is a site using the open-source WordPress software (from WordPress.org) but hosted with o2switch.

  To clear up any confusion, WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two different entities: https://wordpress.com/support/com-vs-org/

  WordPress.org has complete documentation for self-hosted/installed versions of WordPress.org at https://wordpress.org/support/ and support at https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

  With that said though, email forwarding will be controlled by the hosting provider, so I recommend checking their documentation https://faq.o2switch.fr/ or contacting their support for further assistance with this: https://www.o2switch.fr/support-hebergeur/
