A catch-all mailbox is one that captures all the messages sent to inactive addresses. For example, if your address is info@domain.com, but somebody mistypes it and sends an email 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domain name can have this feature enabled and in this way you will never miss messages because the other party has an outdated email address or has made a spelling mistake. The downside of having a catch-all mailbox is that you may start receiving lots of spam email messages, but this problem can be resolved using an anti-spam protection solution. It’s also vital to bear in mind that a mailbox with an active catch-all feature cannot redirect inbound email messages to a 3rd-party address.

Catch-all Emails in Website Hosting

If you host a domain name on our cloud platform and you’ve got a website hosting account, you’ll be able to activate the catch-all feature for any e-mailbox that you create under the domain name. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel’s Email Manager section comes with quite a lot of features, but it is really simple to work with, so setting up a catch-all mailbox takes only one single click of the mouse. All the email addresses that you have will be listed in this section alphabetically and you will only need to click on the "Catch-all" button associated with the concrete email address. Our system will alert you if there is already another catch-all mailbox activated for that domain or if the one that you’d like to be a catch-all mailbox has email forwarding enabled, so you can either disable the latter feature or select another mailbox. Disabling the catch-all option is just as easy and requires one more click on the same button.

Catch-all Emails in Semi-dedicated Servers

You’ll be able to set up a catch-all address with no more than a click in case you’ve got a semi-dedicated hosting plan with us and your emails are handled by our cloud web hosting platform. All the mailboxes that you create with any domain hosted in the semi-dedicated account will be enumerated in the Email Manager section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. Each of them will have a mini "Catch-all" icon next to it, so all it will take to enable this feature will be to click on that icon. In the very same fashion you’ll be able to remove the feature, in case you don’t need it any longer. Our system will let you know if you are trying to activate a second catch-all mailbox for a particular domain name or in case there is activated email forwarding, but it will never deactivate or alter any feature automatically and without your consent.
