# Catch-all email account

In case “**Catch-all**” is activated, then all the emails sent at non-existent addresses of you server will be delivered to address specified in the **`Catch-all email address`** field.

 Additional information Catch-all is not active by default. If catch-all is activated, more spam will definitely arrive in the targeted mailbox than if it is deactivated.

There is also a potential risk of receiving emails containing personal data for some deleted email accounts. It is therefore worth being attentive to the contents of your inbox when catch-all is activated.

**Example**: There are two email accounts info@domeen.ee and abi@domeen.ee on your server. Someone sends an email at nimi@domeen.ee. If “Catch-all” is activated and “Catch-all” email address is specified as for example info@domeen.ee, then email will be delivered to that address.

In order to configure the Catch-all email account on our website choose **[`My Zone`](https://my.zone.lv/en/zid/server/auth?)** and log in using your ZoneID account information. On the service overview page under **`Web-hosting`** click on the shortcut **[`E-mail`](https://my.zone.lv/hosting/webhost/email/accounts?lang=en).**
