Darkluna Posted April 22, 2004 Share Posted April 22, 2004 Since I'm still in the midst of actually building my website, I use my domain mostly for its e-mail accounts. From your helpful FAQ, I see that it's possible to have all e-mail sent to non-created accounts either bounced or auto-deleted. Would I be able to have something similiar done for specific accounts, ie info@**** or sales@**** etc.? At my old webhost I've been using catch-all for years and handing out so many different addresses there's no way I could remember all of them to create them, but there are certain addresses I've also been auto-blocking for years and I don't want to have to start receiving e-mail from them.

TCH-Bruce Posted April 22, 2004 Share Posted April 22, 2004 (edited) I'm not sure if you are asking a pre-sale question or not so I will leave your post in this forum for the time being. You have a catch all account which is the same as your cpanel login. If you allow it to catch mail instead of being black holed it would catch you info@ and sales@ email if those accounts don't exist. For email addresses you don't want to use, you could create a filter for them and set them to Discard and they would just silently go to la la land.

Darkluna Posted April 22, 2004 Author Share Posted April 22, 2004 Thanks for the info about the available filtering. This is a presale question, so I didn't have access to a cpanel to check the features for myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

browsing Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 Hmmmm.... Remember that virus that sent mails to all sorts of addys on your domain name? That was a real bummer. With catch all e-mail, I couldn't filter it out. But maybe you've got filters that would handle it some other way? I saw something about filtering attachment file types.

TCH-Bruce Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 .pif files are already filtered as well as a host of others. Take a look at the Attachments being blocked page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
