Catch All - Please explain slowly...

[ej.hometask]

I am the "admin" for our email and we just switched over to Zimbra. I'm trying to create a Catch All account for our domain: @hometask.com but haven't been successful yet. I've read through other posts on here but can't seem to figure it out, can someone please explain the steps in layman's terms? Much appreciated!

Welcome to the forums,

I assume you understand any spam ramifications - connect via terminal and enter:

su - zimbra
zmprov modifyAccount user@domain.com zimbraMailCatchAllAddress @domain.com

To remove:

zmprov modifyAccount user@domain.com zimbraMailCatchallAddress ""

That is the same info that I've seen from everyone, but unfortunately it doesn't fall within my level of understanding - therein might be my answer, if I don't know what it means I probably don't have access to do it. :/

I was hoping for a solution within the UI but it looks like its a coding thing...thanks

Or via the admin console:


If you've never SSH'd into to the Zimbra server before, is there another admin around to lend a helping hand?

Hey, Mike!
I am running 6.0 RC1 GnR NE but do not see this feature in the admin console under the domain section as seen from this screenshot.

Catchall was added in a 5.0.x release but its not turned on by default.
