A catch-all email mailbox receives messages sent to invalid addresses under the same domain. For instance, an email message sent to the miswritten 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you can get messages from mates or customers who may have sent a message to your email address with a typo or to an outdated one, which they may still have, but you have already deactivated. Just one single mailbox per domain can be a catch-all one and email forwarding cannot be activated for such a mailbox. The latter is due to the fact that at a certain moment you may start receiving spam email messages in the catch-all mailbox and the forwarding restriction implies that the spam will not be received in a 3rd-party mailbox.

Catch-all Emails in Web Hosting

Configuring a catch-all e-mailbox will be stunningly easy if you have a web hosting with us. You can activate this option through our powerful, albeit intuitive Email Manager tool, which is integrated into the Hepsia Control Panel, via which you will manage the hosting account itself. You’ll see all the email addresses that you’ve set up listed alphabetically and next to each of them there will be a small "Catch-all" icon, which will instantaneously inform you whether a particular mailbox stores all the emails associated with a given domain or not. With one single mouse click on the icon you can activate or deactivate this feature at any time. In case there’s enabled email forwarding or if a different mailbox has already been configured as a catch-all one for a specific domain, you will receive a warning from our system. The latter will not replace/disable anything automatically and without your consent.

Catch-all Emails in Semi-dedicated Servers

A catch-all address can be set up with a few mouse clicks in case you’ve got a semi-dedicated server with us. The semi-dedicated hosting account will be managed via our custom-created Hepsia Control Panel and you will be able to create email addresses using any domain hosted there. To enable the catch-all feature for a specific mailbox, you’ll need to click on the logo with the same name, which will be next to each email address. Deactivating this functionality can be achieved in the same way and will not require more than a click either. If a catch-all mailbox has already been activated for a particular domain, you’ll get a warning message. 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 replace anything automatically.
