What is a Catch-All mailbox?

A Catch-All mailbox is an email account that will receive all emails sent to @tudominio.com that do not have a specific mailbox or alias created. Keep in mind that you will receive ALL emails sent to your domain. 'All' means that you may receive a lot of junk mail or Spam.

Where will I receive all these emails?

When creating the Catch-All mailbox, you can specify the email account that you want to receive all these emails.
The destination email does not need to be an account on your domain; it can be any existing email account.

Creating a 'Catch-All' mailbox

You must locate, from the 'Active services tree', the service where you want to create the 'Catch-All' mailbox, or you can use the SWPanel general search to find it:
