What is a catchall email-id?
A catchall email-id is the one that will receive emails sent to all those email-ids on your domain that do not exist. It will act as a cover for all those spelling mistakes in local parts (aliases) that a sender makes while sending emails at your domain. For example, you have and email-id called sharat@yourdomain.com and some one by mistake types it as sharath@yourdomain.com. Now if you have created a catchall email-id on your domain, this message will get delivered in catchall email-id reducing the risk of missing out on important emails.This concept is also called, as “Unlimited Aliasing” which means that a catchall email account gives you the facility to receive all the emails sent to your domain on a single email-id without having to create one email-id per user and one email-id becomes unlimited email-ids. Since this feature gives you the benefits equivalent to having unlimited aliases on your domain, its called “Unlimited Aliasing”.
