A catch-all feature that is enabled for a certain mailbox will permit you to receive emails that are sent to addresses that do not actually exist. Otherwise stated, if you deactivate an email address and someone still sends a message to it, or to any mistyped address under the same domain name, you’ll get the message in the catch-all mailbox. Using this functionality implies that you won’t miss an email for any reason whatsoever, which could be vital in case you are running some business, for instance. Since you may start receiving spam emails, you can use the catch-all option with anti-spam filtering software so as to receive only real messages in your inbox. Just one single mailbox per domain name can be a catch-all one and email forwarding cannot be enabled for a catch-all mailbox.

Catch-all Emails in Shared Hosting

You’ll be able to configure a catch-all mailbox without effort if you’ve got a shared hosting plan with us. The Email Manager in our custom-developed Hepsia hosting Control Panel is full-featured, yet surprisingly simple to work with, and it will enable you to activate different features, including the catch-all one, with no more than a few clicks of the mouse. All the email addresses that you have created will be displayed alphabetically in this section and on the right-hand side of each one of them you will notice a tiny "Catch-all" logo. Clicking it once will enable this option, clicking on it once more will deactivate it. Since you can have just one such catch-all mailbox per domain name, our system will warn you if you already have a different mailbox with this option activated or if you’ve got active email forwarding.

Catch-all Emails in Semi-dedicated Servers

A catch-all address can be set up with a few clicks if you have a semi-dedicated hosting plan with us. The hosting account will be administered through our custom-developed Hepsia hosting Control Panel and you’ll be able to create mailboxes with any domain name registered there. To activate the catch-all feature for a particular mailbox, you’ll need to click on the sign with the exact same name, which will be next to each mailbox. Disabling the feature can be accomplished in the exact same way and will not take more than a click either. In case the catch-all option has already been enabled for a given domain name, you will receive a warning text message. The same is valid if the mailbox that you would like to be a catch-all one has email forwarding enabled, as our system will never deactivate or edit any feature automatically.
