A catch-all email mailbox receives messages sent to invalid addresses under the very same domain. For instance, an email message sent to the miswritten suport@domain.com will be delivered to support@domain.com if the catch-all feature has been enabled for the latter. Thus, you can get emails from buddies or customers who may have sent a message to your email address with a typographical error or to an outdated one, which they may still have, but you have already disabled. Just one single mailbox per domain can be a catch-all one and email forwarding cannot be enabled for such a mailbox. This is due to the fact that at some point you may begin receiving spam emails in the catch-all mailbox and the forwarding limitation means that the spam will not be re-sent to a third-party mailbox.

Catch-all Emails in Shared Hosting

If you have a Linux shared hosting service with our company and you would like to activate the catch-all option for a particular email mailbox that you’ve got in your account, it’ll take literally only one single click of the mouse in the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel to accomplish that. A catch-all button is available on the right-hand side of each and every email address that you have set up under any domain hosted in the account. You can select one single email address per domain name by clicking on the corresponding button. This will enable the feature instantly, so all emails sent to miswritten email addresses will be delivered there. Clicking on the button again will disable the catch-all feature. In case you’ve got active email forwarding, our system will show a cautionary notice and you will not be able to activate the catch-all feature till you deactivate the forwarding or you can simply pick another mailbox to be the catch-all one.

Catch-all Emails in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You will be able to configure a catch-all address with no more than one click in case you have a Linux semi-dedicated service with our company and your email messages are handled by our cloud web hosting platform. All the mailboxes that you create using any domain hosted in your semi-dedicated hosting account will be displayed in the Hepsia hosting Control Panel’s Email Manager section. Each of them will have a mini "Catch-all" icon next to it, so all it will take to activate this functionality will be to click on that icon. In the exact same manner you’ll be able to disable the feature, in case you no longer need it. Our system will let you know if you’re attempting to activate a 2nd catch-all address for a certain domain or if there’s active email forwarding, but it’ll never alter or deactivate anything automatically or without your consent.
