A catch-all email mailbox receives messages sent to non-existent email addresses under the very same domain name. For example, an email message sent to the misspelled suport@domain.com will be delivered to support@domain.com if the catch-all feature has been activated for the latter. Thus, you can receive messages from acquaintances or clients who may have sent a message to your email address with a typographical error or to an old one, which they may still have, but you have already deactivated. Just one mailbox per domain name can be a catch-all one and email forwarding cannot be set up for such a mailbox. This is due to the fact that at a certain point you may begin receiving spam emails in the catch-all mailbox and the forwarding restriction implies that the spam will not be delivered to a 3rd-party mailbox.

Catch-all Emails in Cloud Hosting

If you host a domain on our cloud platform and you’ve got a cloud hosting account, you’ll be able to enable the catch-all functionality for any e-mailbox that you set up under the domain name. The Email Manager section of the Hepsia Control Panel includes quite a lot of features, but it’s stunningly user-friendly, so configuring a catch-all mailbox requires just one mouse click. All the email addresses that you’ve got will be shown in this section alphabetically and you will just have to click on the "Catch-all" button associated with the given address. Our system will notify you if there’s already another catch-all mailbox activated for that domain name or if the one that you would like to be a catch-all mailbox has email forwarding activated, so you can either turn off the latter feature or select a different mailbox. Disabling the catch-all feature is just as simple and requires yet another click on the very same button.

Catch-all Emails in Semi-dedicated Hosting

A catch-all email address can be created with a few mouse clicks in case you have a Linux semi-dedicated package with us. The hosting account will be administered through our in-house built Hepsia Control Panel and you’ll be able to create mailboxes with any domain hosted here. To activate the catch-all option for a given mailbox, you will have to click on the button with the exact same name, which will be to the right of each email address. Deactivating the feature can be accomplished in the very same manner and will not take more than a click either. If the catch-all functionality has already been enabled for a specific domain, you will get a warning text message. The same goes if the mailbox that you’d like to be a catch-all one has email forwarding enabled, as our system will never deactivate or modify any feature automatically.
