A catch-all functionality that is activated for a given email mailbox will allow you to receive email messages that are sent to addresses that do not actually exist. Otherwise put, if you deactivate an email address and somebody still sends a message to it, or to any mistyped address under the exact same domain, you will receive the email in the catch-all mailbox. Using this feature means that you won’t miss an email for any reason whatsoever, which could be vital if you run a business, for instance. Since you may begin receiving junk messages, you can use the catch-all functionality with anti-spam filtering software so as to get only authentic emails in your inbox. Just one 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 Cloud Website Hosting

If you’ve got a Linux cloud website hosting service with our company and you’d like to activate the catch-all option for a certain mailbox that you have in your web hosting account, it’ll take literally only one click in the Email Manager section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel to accomplish that. A catch-all button is available on the right-hand side of each and every email address that you have set up under any domain name hosted in your account. You can pick one single address per domain by clicking the respective button. This will activate the feature instantly, so all messages sent to mistyped email addresses will be received there. Clicking on the button for a second time will deactivate the catch-all feature. In case you have active email forwarding, our system will show a cautionary notice and you will not be able to enable the catch-all feature unless you disable the forwarding or you can simply pick a different mailbox to be the catch-all one.

Catch-all Emails in Semi-dedicated Hosting

The catch-all functionality can be enabled with ease in case you have a semi-dedicated server plan with our company. All the email addresses that you’ve set up using the domain names hosted in the semi-dedicated server account will be shown in the Hepsia hosting Control Panel’s Email Manager section and you will notice a small icon handily located directly next to each one of them. With just a click, you can enable or disable the catch-all option for any mailbox of your choice as long as there isn't another mailbox under that same domain with this option already enabled and there isn't enabled email forwarding. Alternatively, you can right-click on a mailbox and activate the feature using the menu that will come into sight. In case any of the prerequisites for setting up a catch-all mailbox is not matched, our system will warn you, but will not replace or deactivate anything automatically.
