Gail, not Gmail

It's called Catch-All; I have it set up for my Google For Work account (e.g. I have a gmail that receives @my domain). So, you could use gmail to catch all e-mails to @gail.com; no need for a 'custom SMTP server'.

You can also do this with a real MTA; no need for Google, either.

I know; was just an example of an available 'Catch-All' solution.

Back in the day™ I wrote a C# dll to add the functionality to my Exchange server (was not an option back then; don't know if it's possible out of the box now). There are many solutions once you know what to look for (e.g. the phrase 'Catch-All')

I wanted this and I couldn't find it, thanks!

How much spam do you get from the Catch-All?

Thanks for the info. I didn't know it was that easy.
