A Catch-All email address in cPanel allows a mailbox to receive messages sent to invalid or non-existent addresses within your domain. This ensures that emails sent to mistyped or unused addresses are not lost.
In this guide, you will learn how to set up a catch-all email address in cPanel quickly and efficiently.
Follow these steps to create a Catch-All email in cPanel:
- Log in to cPanel.
- Select ‘Default Address’ under the ‘Email’ section.

- Set up your Catch-All email:
- Select the domain for which you want to set up the catch-all address from the drop-down menu.
- Choose ‘Forward to Email Address’.
- Enter the email address where all misdirected emails should be forwarded.
- Click ‘Change’ to save your settings.

- Lastly, verify your setup by sending a test email to a non-existent email address under your domain to ensure it is delivered to the catch-all address.
Expert Tips:
