A catch-all email mailbox is one that collects all the emails sent to nonexistent email addresses. For example, if your address is info@domain.com, but someone miswrites it and sends an email to inof@domain.com, it will still be received in the catch-all mailbox that you have configured. Only one mailbox per domain name can have this feature activated and in this way you will never miss emails because the other side has an obsolete address or has made a spelling error. The negative aspect of configuring a catch-all mailbox is that you may begin receiving plenty of unsolicited emails, but this problem can be fixed using anti-spam filtering software. It is also crucial to keep in mind that a mailbox with an active catch-all feature cannot redirect inbound email messages to a third-party mailbox.

Catch-all Emails in Shared Hosting

You’ll be able to set up a catch-all mailbox without difficulty in case you’ve got a shared hosting account with us. The Email Manager tool in our in-house created Hepsia hosting Control Panel is full-featured, yet astonishingly easy to use, and it will permit you to activate various options, including the catch-all one, with no more than a couple of clicks. All the email addresses that you have created will be enumerated alphabetically in this section and next to each of them you’ll see a small "Catch-all" icon. Clicking on it once will activate the feature, clicking it once more will disable it. Since you can have only one such catch-all mailbox per domain, our system will warn you if you’ve already got a different mailbox with this feature enabled or if you have activated email forwarding.

Catch-all Emails in Semi-dedicated Hosting

The custom-created Hepsia Control Panel that is included with each semi-dedicated server package that we are offering will permit you to create a catch-all e-mailbox without effort even if you do not have much web/email hosting experience. All you need to do to achieve that is click the catch-all icon, which will be on the right-hand side of each mailbox that you have created using your domain names in the Control Panel’s Email Manager section. As you can have only one single mailbox with this feature per domain, our system will warn you if you’ve already created another catch-all mailbox or if the one that you’d like to use has email forwarding activated. In case you reach the decision that you do not need this feature anymore, you can deactivate it by clicking once again on the exact same icon. The Email Manager will also allow you to view your catch-all mailboxes at a glance.
