A catch-all mailbox receives email messages sent to inactive email addresses under the exact same domain. For example, an email sent to the miswritten suport@domain.com will go to support@domain.com in case the catch-all feature has been enabled for the latter. In this way, you can get emails from acquaintances or customers who may have sent a message to your email address with a spelling error or to an out-of-date one, which they may still have, but you have already disabled. Just one mailbox per domain name can be a catch-all one and email forwarding cannot be activated for such a mailbox. The latter is due to the fact that at a certain point you may begin receiving spam messages in the catch-all mailbox and the forwarding limitation implies that the spam will not be re-sent to a 3rd-party mailbox.
Catch-all Emails in Hosting
In case you host a domain on our cloud web hosting platform and you have a hosting account, you will be able to enable the catch-all feature for any mailbox that you create under the domain. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel’s Email Manager section comes with quite a few features, but it’s remarkably easy to use, so configuring a catch-all mailbox requires only one click. All the email addresses that you have set up will be listed in this section alphabetically and you will just need to click the "Catch-all" button associated with the respective address. Our system will notify you if there is 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 pick a different mailbox. Deactivating the catch-all option is just as simple and takes one more mouse click on the very same button.
Catch-all Emails in Semi-dedicated Hosting
The custom-developed Hepsia Control Panel that is included with each semi-dedicated server plan that we offer will allow you to set up a catch-all email mailbox easily even in case you do not have much web/email hosting experience. All it takes to accomplish that is to click on the catch-all icon, which will be to the right of each mailbox that you have set up using your domains in the Email Manager section of the hosting Control Panel. Since you can have just one single mailbox with this feature per domain, our system will notify you if you have already created another catch-all mailbox or if the one that you would like to use has email forwarding enabled. If you reach the decision that you do not need this feature anymore, you can remove it by clicking once again on the exact same icon. The Email Manager will also permit you to see your catch-all mailboxes at a glance.
