A catch-all mailbox receives messages sent to non-existent addresses under the same domain name. For instance, a message sent to the misspelled suport@domain.com will be delivered to support@domain.com in case the catch-all feature has been enabled for the latter. In this way, you can receive email messages from friends or clients who may have sent a message to your email address with a typo or to an old one, which they may still have, but you have already disabled. Only one mailbox per domain name can be a catch-all one and email forwarding cannot be enabled for such a mailbox. This is so because of the fact that at a certain point you may start receiving spam messages in the catch-all mailbox and the forwarding limitation implies that the spam will not be delivered to a 3rd-party mailbox.

Catch-all Emails in Cloud Hosting

Creating a catch-all mailbox will be very easy in case you’ve got a cloud plan with us. You can enable this option through our powerful, albeit easy-to-work-with Email Manager tool, which is an indivisible part of the Hepsia Control Panel, via which you’ll administer the shared web hosting account itself. You’ll find all the mailboxes that you’ve created enumerated alphabetically and on the right-hand side of each one there will be a small "Catch-all" icon, which will instantaneously reveal to you if a specific mailbox gets all the messages associated with a given domain or not. With one mouse click on the icon you can activate or deactivate this feature whenever you wish. If there is activated email forwarding or in case another mailbox has already been set up as a catch-all one for a certain domain, you will receive a warning message from our system. The latter won’t replace/deactivate anything automatically or without your consent.

Catch-all Emails in Semi-dedicated Servers

The in-house built Hepsia hosting Control Panel that is included with each and every semi-dedicated server plan that we’re offering will allow you to set up a catch-all mailbox easily even in case you do not have much web/email hosting experience. All it takes to do that is to click the catch-all icon, which will be on the right side of each mailbox that you have created using your domain names in the hosting Control Panel’s Email Manager section. Since you can have only one single mailbox with this feature per domain, our system will warn you if you’ve already configured a different catch-all mailbox or if the one that you would like to use has email forwarding enabled. If you reach the decision that you don’t need the feature any longer, you can deactivate it by clicking again on the very same icon. The Email Manager section will also permit you to see your catch-all mailboxes at a glance.
