A catch-all email mailbox receives emails sent to non-existent addresses under the exact same domain. For example, an email sent to the misspelled suport@domain.com will go to support@domain.com in case the catch-all feature has been enabled for the latter. Thus, you can receive emails from partners or clients who may have sent a message to your email address with a spelling mistake or to an obsolete one, which they may still have, but you have already deactivated. Only one mailbox per domain name can be a catch-all one and email forwarding cannot be enabled for such a mailbox. This is due to the fact that at a certain moment you may begin receiving spam messages in the catch-all mailbox and the forwarding limitation implies that the spam will not be redirected to a 3rd-party mailbox.

Catch-all Emails in Website Hosting

If you have a website hosting with our company and you want to enable the catch-all functionality for a particular e-mailbox that you’ve got in the web hosting account, it will take literally only one click of the mouse in the Email Manager section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel to achieve this. A catch-all button is available next to each email address that you have set up under any domain name hosted in your account. You can select one address per domain by clicking the corresponding button. This will enable the feature straight away, so all emails sent to miswritten email addresses will be re-sent there. Clicking the button for a second time will disable the catch-all feature. If you have enabled email forwarding, our system will display a cautionary notification and you will not be able to activate the catch-all feature unless you remove the forwarding or you can simply select a different mailbox to be the catch-all one.

Catch-all Emails in Semi-dedicated Hosting

A catch-all email address can be configured with a few clicks of the mouse in case you have a Linux semi-dedicated hosting with our company. The semi-dedicated account will be managed through our custom-created Hepsia Control Panel and you will be able to create email addresses using any domain name hosted here. To activate the catch-all option for a certain mailbox, you will have to click on the icon with the same name, which will be on the right-hand side of each email address. Deactivating this option can be achieved in the very same fashion and will not take more than a click either. In case the catch-all option has already been activated for a particular domain name, you will receive a notification. The same is valid if the mailbox that you’d like to be a catch-all one has email forwarding activated, as our system will never deactivate or edit anything automatically.
