A catch-all feature that is enabled for a given email mailbox will permit you to receive emails that are sent to addresses that do not actually exist. Otherwise said, if you disable an email address and someone still sends an email message to it, or to any misspelled address under the exact same domain, you will receive the email in the catch-all mailbox. Using this feature means that you will no longer miss an email for any reason whatsoever, which could be crucial in case you run some business, for example. Since you may begin receiving unsolicited bulk email messages, you can combine the catch-all functionality with anti-spam filters in order to receive only authentic messages in your inbox. Only one mailbox per domain can be a catch-all one and email forwarding cannot be set up for a catch-all mailbox.

Catch-all Emails in Shared Website Hosting

In case you’ve got a shared website hosting service with our company and you wish to enable the catch-all feature for a certain email mailbox that you’ve got in your account, it’ll take literally just a single 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 created under any domain name hosted in the account. You can choose one single email address per domain by clicking the corresponding button. This will activate the feature instantaneously, so all messages sent to misspelled email addresses will be re-sent there. Clicking the button once again will turn off the catch-all feature. In case you’ve got active email forwarding, our system will display a cautionary notice and you will not be able to activate the catch-all feature until you delete the forwarding or you can simply choose some other mailbox to be the catch-all one.

Catch-all Emails in Semi-dedicated Hosting

A catch-all email address can be set up with several clicks of the mouse if you’ve got a Linux semi-dedicated service with our company. The semi-dedicated account will be managed through our in-house developed Hepsia hosting Control Panel and you will be able to create email addresses using any domain registered there. To enable the catch-all feature for a specific mailbox, you’ll need to click on the sign with the same name, which will be next to each email address. Disabling this option can be done in the very same fashion and will not require more than a click either. If a catch-all mailbox has already been activated for a certain domain, you’ll get a warning message. The same is valid if the mailbox that you wish to be a catch-all one has email forwarding enabled, as our system will never deactivate or change anything automatically.
