A catch-all mailbox is one that captures all the emails sent to non-existent email addresses. For example, if your email address is info@domain.com, but someone misspells it and sends a message to inof@domain.com, it will still be received in the catch-all mailbox that you have created. Just one mailbox per domain can have this feature enabled and in this way you will never miss messages because the other side has an out-of-date address or has made a typo. The disadvantage of setting up a catch-all mailbox is that you may start receiving lots of unsolicited bulk emails, but this issue can be fixed using anti-spam protection software. It’s also important to remember that a mailbox with an active catch-all functionality cannot redirect inbound messages to a third-party mailbox.

Catch-all Emails in Cloud Web Hosting

In case you have a Linux cloud web hosting with our company and you want to activate the catch-all functionality for a given email mailbox that you’ve got in your web hosting account, it will take literally only a single mouse click in the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel to accomplish this. A catch-all button is available on the right side of each and every email address that you have created under any domain hosted in the account. You can pick one single address per domain name by clicking on the respective button. This will enable the feature straight away, so all emails sent to misspelled email addresses will be delivered there. Clicking on the button again will deactivate the catch-all feature. In case you have active email forwarding, our system will exhibit a warning notification and you won’t be able to activate the catch-all feature until you disable the forwarding or you can simply pick a different mailbox to be the catch-all one.

Catch-all Emails in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You’ll be able to configure a catch-all email address with no more than a click if you have a semi-dedicated hosting with our company and your email messages are handled by our cloud web hosting platform. All the email addresses that you set up with any domain name hosted in your semi-dedicated account will be shown in the Hepsia hosting Control Panel’s Email Manager section. Each of them will have a small "Catch-all" icon on its right-hand side, so all it will take to enable the feature will be to click that icon. In the very same way you will be able to deactivate the feature, in case you don’t need it anymore. Our system will let you know if you are attempting to activate a second catch-all mailbox for a given domain name or if there’s activated email forwarding, but it will never disable or alter any feature automatically and without your approval.
