A catch-all email mailbox receives email messages sent to nonexistent addresses under the exact same domain. For instance, an email message sent to the misspelled suport@domain.com will be delivered to support@domain.com in case the catch-all feature has been activated for the latter. In this way, you can get emails from pals or clients who may have sent a message to your email address with a spelling error or to an old one, which they may still have, but you have already deleted. Just one single mailbox per domain can be a catch-all one and email forwarding cannot be activated for such a mailbox. This is due to the fact that at a certain moment you may start receiving spam emails in the catch-all mailbox and the forwarding restriction means that the spam will not be delivered to a 3rd-party mailbox.

Catch-all Emails in Web Hosting

If you’ve got a web hosting with our company and you would like to activate the catch-all functionality for a specific e-mailbox that you have in the hosting account, it will take literally just one single click of the mouse in the Email Manager section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel to accomplish that. A catch-all button is available on the right-hand side of each email address that you have set up under any domain name registered in your account. You can pick one single email address per domain name by clicking the respective button. This will activate the feature instantly, so all messages sent to mistyped addresses will be re-sent there. Clicking the button once again will turn off the catch-all feature. In case you have enabled email forwarding, our system will exhibit a warning message and you won’t be able to enable the catch-all feature unless you deactivate the forwarding or you can simply pick some other mailbox to be the catch-all one.

Catch-all Emails in Semi-dedicated Servers

The custom-created Hepsia Control Panel that is included with every semi-dedicated server plan that we are offering will permit you to configure a catch-all email mailbox without any effort even in case you don’t have much email/web hosting experience. All you need to do to accomplish that is click on the catch-all icon, which will be on the right-hand side of each email address that you’ve created using your domains in the hosting Control Panel’s Email Manager section. As you can have only one single mailbox with this feature per domain, our system will inform you if you have already configured another catch-all mailbox or if the one that you would like to use has email forwarding activated. In case you reach the decision that you do not need the feature anymore, you can turn it off by clicking once again on the exact same icon. The Email Manager section will also permit you to see your catch-all mailboxes at a glance.
