Catch-all email address

At my last ISP, email was configured so that email addressed to any account i.e. *@<domain>.com could be collected, even if a POP account or an alias had not been set up for that address. I used this regularly - any time I was asked for an email address at a web site, I'd use the address <web-site-name>@<domain>.com.

I can't find a way to use Vortech's email system like this. This poses a problem in that I dodn't have a list of every address I have ever used, and even if I did, it's a pain in the but to set all the aliases up, or to remember to add new ones as required.

Am I missing something, or is this really not possible?

Thanks for any advice

You need to setup a mailbox and there is an option called "Catchall" that you are looking to use... It will catch all emails that dont have another destination.

You can do this, there is an option in the email settings to set an email account as a 'catch all'.

If I'd set up a new mailbox before posting here, I'd have seen that!

Thanks for the speedy responses.
