A catch-all mailbox is one that gathers all the messages sent to nonexistent addresses. For example, if your address is info@domain.com, but someone misspells it and sends an email message to inof@domain.com, it will still be received in the catch-all mailbox that you have set up. Only one single mailbox per domain can have this feature activated and in this way you will never miss emails because the other party has an outdated address or has made a mistake. The drawback of configuring a catch-all mailbox is that you may begin receiving lots of spam, but this issue can be rectified using anti-spam filtering software. It is also essential to remember that a mailbox with an enabled catch-all functionality cannot redirect incoming email messages to a third-party address.

Catch-all Emails in Website Hosting

You’ll be able to configure a catch-all e-mailbox without any effort in case you have a website hosting plan with us. The Email Manager in our in-house built Hepsia Control Panel is full-featured, yet amazingly simple to use, and it will permit you to activate various features, including the catch-all one, with no more than a couple of mouse clicks. All the mailboxes that you have created will be displayed alphabetically in this section and on the right-hand side of each of them you’ll notice a tiny "Catch-all" symbol. Clicking it once will activate this option, clicking on it again will deactivate it. Since you can have only one such mailbox per domain name, our system will alert you if you’ve already got a different mailbox with this feature activated or if you have enabled email forwarding.

Catch-all Emails in Semi-dedicated Servers

A catch-all address can be created with a couple of mouse clicks if you’ve got a semi-dedicated server with our company. The semi-dedicated account will be managed via our in-house developed Hepsia Control Panel and you’ll be able to create mailboxes with any domain name registered here. To activate the catch-all functionality for a given mailbox, you’ll have to click on the icon with the exact same name, which will be on the right side of each mailbox. Deactivating this functionality can be done in the exact same way and will not take more than one click either. If the catch-all feature has already been enabled for a given domain, you’ll receive a notification. The same goes if the mailbox that you want to be a catch-all one has email forwarding activated, as our system will never disable or change anything automatically.
