Estimated reading: 1 minute 365 views

A catch-all email is a convenient way to receive any messages sent to incorrect or invalid email addresses for your domain, e.g., if you have [email protected] and the sender wrote [email protected].

How to Create a Catch-All

Log into your cPanel.

Navigate to the Email section of your cPanel and locate the Default Address option:

.deb open with archive manager

On the new page, choose the domain name from the drop-down menu, mark the option to Forward to email address, and enter the mailbox to which emails will be forwarded:

.deb open with archive manager

When all is ready, click on Change and the catch-all will be created.

How to Delete Catch-All Emails

In the Default Address section, change the setting to one of the following according to your preference:

  • Discard with a message to the sender – specify the message to be sent in Failure Message

  • Discard without notification – expand the Advanced Options to find the Discard (Not Recommended) option

Next, click on Change to update this setting. If needed, you can create a new catch-all at any time.
