A catch-all mailbox receives messages sent to inactive email addresses under the same domain. For example, an email sent to the mistyped suport@domain.com will be delivered to support@domain.com in case the catch-all feature has been enabled for the latter. In this way, you can get emails from mates or clients who may have sent a message to your email address with a spelling error or to an outdated one, which they may still have, but you have already disabled. Just one mailbox per domain can be a catch-all one and email forwarding cannot be set up for such a mailbox. The latter is due to the fact that at a certain point you may begin receiving spam email messages in the catch-all mailbox and the forwarding limitation implies that the spam will not be redirected to a third-party mailbox.

Catch-all Emails in Cloud Web Hosting

If you have a cloud web hosting with our company and you’d like to enable the catch-all functionality for a specific email mailbox that you have in your hosting account, it will take literally only a single click in the Email Manager section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel to accomplish that. A catch-all button is available next to each and every email address that you have set up under any domain name registered in the account. You can select one address per domain by clicking on the corresponding button. This will enable the feature momentarily, so all messages sent to miswritten addresses will be delivered there. Clicking on the button for a second time will disable the catch-all feature. If you have activated email forwarding, our system will exhibit a warning message and you won’t be able to activate the catch-all feature till you delete the forwarding or you can simply select another mailbox to be the catch-all one.
