A catch-all mailbox is one that collects all the messages sent to nonexistent email addresses. For instance, if your email address is info@domain.com, but somebody misspells it and sends a message to inof@domain.com, it will still be received in the catch-all mailbox that you have set up. Just one mailbox per domain can have this feature enabled and thus you’ll never miss messages because the other party has an outdated address or has made a spelling error. The downside of setting up a catch-all mailbox is that you may begin receiving plenty of spam email messages, but this problem can be resolved by using an anti-spam protection solution. It is also vital to remember that a mailbox with an enabled catch-all feature cannot redirect inbound emails to a third-party email address.

Catch-all Emails in Cloud Web Hosting

In case you have a cloud web hosting with our company and you want to enable the catch-all functionality for a particular mailbox that you have in your account, it will take literally just a click of the mouse in the Email Manager section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel to accomplish that. A catch-all button is available next to each and every email address that you have set up under any domain registered in your account. You can select one single email address per domain name by clicking the respective button. This will enable the feature instantaneously, so all emails sent to misspelled addresses will be received there. Clicking the button again will disable the catch-all feature. In case you’ve got active email forwarding, our system will display a warning note and you won’t be able to enable the catch-all feature unless you delete the forwarding or you can simply pick another mailbox to be the catch-all one.
