Welcome to another April 1st at NamePros!

You've been patiently waiting for 365 days to see what we'll cook up next, right? ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿณ ๐Ÿ˜„

This year, we're setting a new standard: something truly unique and useful โ€” an industry first!   In fact, it's the first ever, in the history of the universe! * ๐Ÿช โœจ ๐Ÿ”ญ ๐Ÿคฏ

Okay, okay, enough hype.   Let us explain!

Introducing the world's first web-based catch-all mailbox (single inbox) for multiple domains โ€” 100% free for unlimited domains, private, fully integrated, and no MX record needed!   No messy forwards.   No cluttering your main inbox.   Just pick out what's worth keeping.

Provided you're using our NS, all incoming emails to all of your parked domains will go into a single dedicated mailbox:

View Your Catch-All Inbox

Emails can be addressed to any user with any capitalization ("catchall"). For example: [email protected] or [email protected].   Try sending an email to one of your own domains!

Thanks to our one-of-a-kind technology, you're able to see emails that are sent to your parked domains, even without MX records. ๐ŸŽญ ๐ŸŽ‰

That's so cool!! ๐Ÿคฉ

What you can do with a multi-domain catch-all inbox:​

  • Leads: Identify new prospects who may want to buy your domains.
  • Popularity: Gauge how popular each domain is based on how many emails it receives.
  • History: Discover how the domain was used in the past.
  • Disposable: Private temporary email addresses for quick email verifications, unimportant account creations, trial signups, primary account spam prevention, and much more. Replace public ones like TempMail, Guerrilla Mail, 10MinuteMail, Mailinator, and ThrowAwayMail.
  • Privacy: Share contact details without revealing your identity.
  • Marketing: Track campaigns through unique email addresses.
  • Consolidation: Bring everything into a single inbox.
  • Error detection: Uncover misspelled, mistyped, misheard, or incorrect email addresses.
  • Development: Test emailing functionality, create test accounts for quality assurance (QA), unique email addresses for automation purposes, etc.
  • Brand Protection: Detect unauthorized or fraudulent use of your domains.
  • Security: Observe connections, establish relationships, spot trends, learn about phishing/spoofing attempts or new scam tactics, identify patterns, etc.
  • Honeypots: Build an awesome spam filter based on the emails.
  • And so much more!

Features:

  • โœ… View emails addressed to anyone on all of your parked domains
  • โœ… Single inbox for everything, fully hosted on NamePros.com
  • โœ… Unlimited number of domains (even millions of custom domains!)
  • โœ… Zero setup, no extra configuration โ€“ it's the default! (Just set your NS)
  • โœ… MX records are unneeded (domains return MX records by default)
  • โœ… Download emails **
  • โœ… Bulk management for settings (i.e., multi-select checkboxes or CSV import)
  • โœ… 100% free

Features coming soon ๐Ÿ”ฎ

(Updates: โณ = In progress; โœ… = Complete & Available now!)
  • โœ… Find emails: Search the domain, "From" address, subject, and body message of all emailsโ€”blazingly fast!
  • โœ… Filter emails by a specific domain on its Summary page using the new "Catchall" tab, which can also be accessed by pressing any domain name displayed in the Catchall Inbox or in an individual email.
  • โœ… Our NS is optional: You can use your NamePros Catch-All Inbox while using another service's nameservers: just add our MX records: Learn more.
  • โณ Mark emails as Read/Unread (POP3)
  • โณ Download all emails, automatically and continuously (POP3)
  • โŒ Forward emails to another confirmed email address | Update: Email providers might blame us for the spam sent to your domains, so POP3 is the best option that will provide the same functionality as email forwarding.
Tell us what else you'd like us to add!


Catch-All, Catch-Nothing, Catch-Fire โš ๏ธ

Since this is a new service that receives an unrestricted and unpredictably high volume of email, we don't know how often we'll need to delete them. Every catch-all email message may be deleted by us anytime and without warning; do not use this feature for anything important. Download any emails that you want to keep, or use our "catch-all email forwarding" in the form of POP3 downloading. ๐ŸŒช

Bonus

You can even use your NamePros Catch-All Inbox while using another service's nameservers (NS): just add our MX records.

Use the following values:

TypeMX
Name / Host / AliasLeave this blank, or enter @

If you're adding a subdomain, enter the subdomain value in this field. (Example: For the subdomain email.example.com, you would enter email)
TTLUse your domain registrar's default value, or enter 60
Priority10
Value / Answer / Destinationmx1.parking.namepros.com

mx2.parking.namepros.com


Important:
Follow your domain registrarโ€™s preferred format. For example, some domain registrars require a period at the end (mx1.parking.namepros.com.).

Note: The domains must be added to your account and verified for you to see the emails.

Catch-all email is only worthwhile if you have a โ€œdomain for saleโ€ autoresponder that follows up every day for a couple of months.

1 day, three pages of spam. Like good old days before gmail. :-P
When we first rolled out the update and watched the emails flow in, I nearly had a heart attack. Even with strict limits on the size of each email, we were seeing something along the lines of 3 GiB of email per hour.

I was using an 800K 3.5โ€ floppy disk as a coaster for my tea. If we were storing all this data on such disks, weโ€™d be writing about 4,000 floppy disks per hour. That would make for an especially noisy server rack.

Interesting. I was about to nitpick about the size, because DD 3.5" floppy disks had 720K capacity on DOS and 880K on AmigaOS, so I thought you meant one of those numbers, but I checked wiki and it says RISC OS got 800K capacity out of DD floppies, so technically you would be correct (if you used RISC OS on that rack). ;)

4,000 floppy disks
Late last night, while looking for the remnants of my 1992 HP 486SX (it was my first REAL personal computer) I came across a box with about that many 3.5's in it...I could not sleep wondering about the incredible data/information that must be encased. :ROFL::glasses::unsure:

Nice! I initially thought this was "April Fools" -- but it actually works! I just tried it and got the dummy email I sent to one of my domains in seconds...

Sorting, filtering, and searching are coming soon. Weโ€™re indexing everything in our Elasticsearch cluster in preparation!

I think weโ€™re going to need more servers than we planned, though. ๐Ÿค” Yโ€™all get too much spam.

Thanks for your quick reply! I would like to clarify my request to turn off/on for certain domain names.
I would like to turn off the feature at the account level, and then turn it on only for the domain name(s) I'd be interested in seeing

Inversely, I might want to turn it on at the account level, and then turn it off for the domain name(s) I no longer want to see

Our catch-all feature can be disabled on your entire account or individual domains:

Tell those MX records to walk the plank!

Another great feature of our landers:
  • โœ… Auto-Protection From Domain Damage: Protect the value of your domains by blocking email abuse that could cause them to be banned and blocklisted. This feature requires using our nameservers that auto-set SPF and DMARC records to block all emails sent from your parked domains.

We got it all! ๐Ÿ˜

Excellent idea so that the Catch-all Mailbox only shows emails on the domains you care about. Or, you could hide emails on specific domains if they get a lot of spam and uninteresting emails.

One day, a demo domain will receive an email.
Well, I tried:

Sorry, we were unable to deliver your message to the following address.

<[email protected]>:
550: 5.1.1 User unknown in local recipient table

---------- Forwarded message ----------
Hi Ms. Pot,

Or shall I call you Honey?

I was given this email with the promise a good time could be found here...please make the 'Price Visible' so we may proceed.

(If I have have reached this email in error, please disregard.)

I crack me up!

Yesterday I selected the Disable option for the Catch-all at the account level. But overnight I still got over a thousand emails for a bunch of different domain names in my account. Is there a way to force compliance so that if I have it turned off at the account level, then only names I turn on individually will work as a Catch-all

At the moment, we don't have a feature to do that, but we agreed that it's an excellent idea. ๐Ÿ˜Š

For the time being, we'll probably focus our efforts on reducing spam sent to all domains. ๐Ÿงน

That should make this feature more useful. ๐Ÿคž
