Catch-all
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Catch-all (Mail))
A Catch-all for email, usually refers to a mailbox on a domain that will "catch all" of the emails addressed to the domain that do not exist in the mail server. Configuring a catch-all address can help avoid losing emails due to misspelling.
For example: if johndoe@xyz.com is configured to be the catch-all email address on xyz.com, then any email sent to an undefined @xyz.com email address will be forwarded to johndoe@xyz.com instead of being rejected as an Undeliverable message or Unknown User error.
