Q. What is a "catchall" account?

A: A "catchall" account is an account that will catch any e-mail that's sent to a non-existing account under your domain. Instead of bouncing the e-mail back to the sender, it'll store the e-mail into the account that's assigned as the "catchall" account. Only one user of your domain can have the "catchall" account assigned to them. You can also assign a remote "catchall" account that's assigned to an e-mail outside of your domain.
Warning: Never delete the account that is the catchall account!
