    Catch all emails

    I am a free user - a friend who is on paid hosting can set a catch all filter to catch all incoming mail to domain.com sent to his gmail account.

    E.g. no matter if someone sends an email to yousuck@domain.com or thisaddressdoesn'texist@domain.com, the message will still be forwarded to his Gmail account.

    As a free user, am I able to use this too? I can't find it in my Cpanel, is it possible for an admin to enable this for me?

    Thanks a lot!

    suppose you have the domain
    http://mydomain.com

    add this to its end :2082/frontend/x3/mail/fwds.html

    i.e. goto

    http://mydomain.com:2082/frontend/x3/mail/fwds.html

    Thanks for your replies, Akku and Tittat.

    I am aware of the above function in Cpanel - but I don't want to add 30 forwarding addresses, rather, I want EVERY email sent to ANY address @domain.com to be forwarded to another email address - that's the idea of a 'catch-all' filter, and it doesn't seem free users get that option in Cpanel.

    Admin, what say you? Do I have to enter all the addresses manually?

    Re: Catch all emails

    Firstly you won't get a reply from an admin here as this is unofficial support where members help each other (where possible).

    Can you not try adding an asterick ( * ) like *@domain to forward to where you want? Not entirely sure if that works to be honest with you.

    Thanks for the reminder Martin - posted my question in official support as well.

    Tried your asterisk idea - no go.
