How to apply catch(all) to your email address in cPanel?




This feature allows you to set up a default address that receives any mail sent to an invalid email address for the domain. The default address is also commonly called a “catch-all address.”

You can apply a default address or catch-all on your email account via the New Yournic Control panel.



To set up your default address (catch-all), please perform the below steps:

1- Select the domain for which you wish to set up a default address.
 2- Select one of the following options:

Option a): Discard with error to sender

. Sends an error message to the sender when an email is sent to this address.
. After you select this option, enter an error message that will be emailed to the sender.

Option b): Forward to email address

. Enter the address to which to forward emails in the text box.
. You do not need to type “@” and the domain name.

3- Click the “Change” button.

You have now successfully setup Default address (catch-all) on your selected email account.
