JohnB 255 Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 Personally I would forward them all to one and just manage them from a single account. John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
New Guy 4 Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 Yep, using a catch-all would be your best bet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ubotapprentice 1 Posted February 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 thanks if i catch all then......what happens when you click the confirmation email? doesnt it shows the catch all email account.....instead of the account used to create the sign up? also with catch all? that means i dont even need to make the email accounts? i can sign up to a site with *@mydomain.com ?

New Guy 4 Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 You can just use any random name @domain.com The verification links will still work as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ubotapprentice 1 Posted February 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 do i need to create the email accounts on cpanel? or just sign up on the forum site with any email then assume its catch all? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pete 121 Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 do i need to create the email accounts on cpanel? Yes you will need to set up your catch-all email account on your cpanelThis will catch all the mail sent to anythinkthatstypedhere@yourdomain.com Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LoWrIdErTJ - BotGuru 904 Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 your going to have to use a valid email address signing up to forums for the registration verification process. so setup a bunch of emails on your server, or use free emails. only way to use the catch all on cpanel is to setup a bunch of emails on your personal cpanel then use them for signing up.

LoWrIdErTJ - BotGuru 904 Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 Sorry you are absolutely correct.You wont have to setup any email accounts except for 1. That will be the catch all account. that the catch all will forward any emails sent to on that domain { * } @yoursite.com { * } can be anything you want. can be randomized, or spin emails used when signing up. Here is also a video how its used and setup.http://video.answers.com/setup-a-catch-all-mail-account-in-cpanel-web-hosting-panel-98582968 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
