A catch-all functionality that is activated for a given e-mailbox will permit you to receive email messages that are sent to email addresses that do not really exist. Otherwise said, if you deactivate an email address and someone still sends an email message to it, or to any mistyped address under the exact same domain, you will receive the message in the catch-all mailbox. Using this feature implies that you won’t miss an email for any reason whatsoever, which could be crucial in case you run a business, for instance. Since you may start receiving spam messages, you can combine the catch-all feature with anti-spam filtering software so as to get only authentic messages in your inbox. Just one mailbox per domain can be a catch-all one and email forwarding cannot be enabled for a catch-all mailbox.
Catch-all Emails in Website Hosting
Setting up a catch-all e-mailbox will be quite easy if you’ve got a website hosting with our company. You can enable the feature through our powerful, albeit intuitive Email Manager tool, which is an essential part of the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, via which you will manage the web hosting account itself. You will see all the email addresses that you have set up enumerated in alphabetical order and on the right-hand side of each one of them there will be a small "Catch-all" icon, which will instantly notify you whether a particular mailbox receives all the emails for a certain domain name or not. With a single mouse click on the icon you can activate or deactivate this feature at any time. If there is enabled email forwarding or if a different mailbox has already been configured as a catch-all one for a particular domain name, you’ll receive a warning from our system. The latter will not replace/disable anything automatically or without your consent.
Catch-all Emails in Semi-dedicated Servers
A catch-all email address can be configured with several clicks if you’ve got a semi-dedicated server with our company. The hosting account will be administered via our in-house built Hepsia Control Panel and you will be able to create mailboxes using any domain name registered here. To activate the catch-all feature for a mailbox, you’ll have to click the sign with the exact same name, which will be next to each mailbox. Disabling this feature can be accomplished in the very same way and will not take more than one click either. In case the catch-all functionality has already been enabled for a specific domain, you’ll receive a notification. 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 modify or deactivate any feature automatically.
