A catch-all email mailbox is one that captures all the messages sent to inactive email addresses. For instance, if your email address is info@domain.com, but someone miswrites it and sends an email message to inof@domain.com, it will still be received in the catch-all mailbox that you have configured. Just one single mailbox per domain can have this feature enabled and in this way you’ll never miss messages because the other side has an outdated email address or has made a typo. The disadvantage of using a catch-all mailbox is that you may start receiving lots of unsolicited emails, but this issue can be resolved using anti-spam protection software. It is also vital to bear in mind that a mailbox with an active catch-all functionality cannot redirect incoming messages to a third-party email address.

Catch-all Emails in Semi-dedicated Servers

You will be able to create a catch-all email address with no more than a click if you’ve got a Linux semi-dedicated server with our company and your emails are handled by our cloud platform. All the addresses that you set up with any domain name hosted in the account will be displayed in the Hepsia hosting Control Panel’s Email Manager section. Each of them will have a mini "Catch-all" icon next to it, so all it will take to enable this feature will be to click that icon. In the very same fashion you’ll be able to remove the feature, in case you don’t need it anymore. Our system will notify you in case you are attempting to enable a second catch-all email address for a particular domain name or in case there is enabled email forwarding, but it will never disable or alter anything automatically or without your consent.
