A catch-all mailbox is one that captures all the emails sent to invalid addresses. For instance, if your email address is info@domain.com, but someone miswrites it and sends an email message to inof@domain.com, it will still be received in the catch-all mailbox that you have configured. Only one single mailbox per domain name can have this feature enabled and in this way you will never miss messages because the other party has an obsolete email address or has made a typo. The negative aspect of creating a catch-all mailbox is that you may start receiving lots of spam, but this issue can be solved by using anti-spam filtering software. It is also important to keep in mind that a mailbox with an active catch-all functionality cannot forward inbound emails to a third-party address.

Catch-all Emails in Shared Website Hosting

If you host a domain name on our cloud web hosting platform and you have a shared website hosting account, you will be able to activate the catch-all functionality for any mailbox that you create under the domain name. The Hepsia Control Panel’s Email Manager section includes quite a few features, but it’s extremely simple to work with, so setting up a catch-all mailbox requires only one click. All the email addresses that you have set up will be displayed in this section in alphabetical order and you’ll only need to click on the "Catch-all" button associated with the given address. Our system will warn you if there’s already another catch-all mailbox enabled for that domain or if the one that you want to be a catch-all mailbox has email forwarding activated, so you can either turn off the latter feature or choose a different mailbox. Deactivating the catch-all option is just as simple and requires one more mouse click on the very same button.

Catch-all Emails in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You’ll be able to create a catch-all email address with no more than a click in case you’ve got a Linux semi-dedicated hosting package with us and your emails are handled by our cloud platform. All the mailboxes that you create using any domain name hosted in your semi-dedicated hosting account will be enumerated in the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel. Each of them will have a small-size "Catch-all" icon next to it, so all it will take to activate the feature will be to click on that icon. In the exact same manner you’ll be able to disable the feature, in case you don’t need it any longer. Our system will inform you if you’re attempting to activate a 2nd catch-all email address for a given domain or if there’s active email forwarding, but it will never change or disable any feature automatically and without your approval.
