A catch-all functionality that is activated for a particular mailbox will permit you to receive email messages that are sent to email addresses that do not actually exist. Otherwise stated, if you disable an email address and someone still sends an email to it, or to any mistyped address under the very same domain name, you’ll get the message in the catch-all mailbox. Using this functionality implies that you will no longer miss an email for any reason whatsoever, which could be vital if you run a business, for instance. Since you may start receiving unsolicited messages, you can combine the catch-all functionality with anti-spam filtering software so as to receive only real emails 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 Cloud Web Hosting
If you’ve got a cloud web hosting plan with our company and you want to enable the catch-all option for a particular email mailbox that you’ve got in the hosting account, it’ll take literally just a click in the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel to achieve this. A catch-all button is available next to each email address that you have set up under any domain name registered in the account. You can choose one single address per domain name by clicking the respective button. This will enable the feature right away, so all email messages sent to misspelled email addresses will be delivered there. Clicking the button once more will deactivate the catch-all feature. In case you have enabled email forwarding, our system will show a warning note and you won’t be able to enable the catch-all feature till you deactivate the forwarding or you can simply choose another mailbox to be the catch-all one.
Catch-all Emails in Semi-dedicated Servers
You will be able to configure a catch-all address with no more than a click if you have a semi-dedicated plan with our company and your email messages are handled by our cloud web hosting platform. All the email addresses that you set up using any domain hosted in your account will be enumerated in the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel. Each of them will have a mini "Catch-all" icon on its right-hand side, so all it will take to activate the feature will be to click on that icon. In the same fashion you’ll be able to disable the feature, in case you don’t need it any longer. Our system will notify you if you are attempting to enable a second catch-all email address for a certain domain or in case there’s enabled email forwarding, but it will never change or deactivate anything automatically or without your consent.
