A catch-all functionality that is enabled for a specific e-mailbox will permit you to receive email messages that are sent to email addresses that do not actually exist. Otherwise stated, if you delete an email address and someone still sends an email to it, or to any mistyped email address under the exact same domain, 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 essential if you run a business, for instance. Since you may start receiving spam email messages, you can combine the catch-all option with anti-spam filters in order to receive only legitimate email messages in your inbox. Just one single 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 Web Hosting

Setting up a catch-all email mailbox will be remarkably easy if you have a web hosting with our company. You can activate this option through our advanced, yet simple-to-use Email Manager tool, which is included in the Hepsia Control Panel, via which you will administer the shared hosting account itself. You’ll find all the email addresses that you’ve created shown alphabetically and on the right-hand side of each of them there will be a small "Catch-all" icon, which will immediately let you know whether a certain mailbox stores all the emails for a given domain name or not. With a single mouse click on the icon you can activate or deactivate the feature whenever you want. In case there’s activated email forwarding or in case a different mailbox has already been set up as a catch-all one for a certain domain, you will get a warning note from our system. The latter won’t replace/disable anything automatically or without your consent.
