Google Workspace Catch-All for multiple domainsUpdated 2 years ago
Setting up a Catch-All
- Log into your admin area and navigate to Apps > Google Workspace > Settings for Gmail > Routing
- Add a new routing rule with the following settings:
- Email messages to affect
- Inbound = checked
- Internal - Sending = checked
- Internal - Receiving = checked
- For the above types of messages, do the following:
- Modify Subject
- Prepend custom subject with the string “[catch-all]” or similar
- Spam
- Bypass spam filter for this message
- Also deliver to
- Add more recipients = Add the destination email address for the catch-all emails
- Expand the Show Options link at the bottom
- Account types to affect = Unrecognized / Catch-all
- Modify Subject
- Email messages to affect
- Now test this rule from an external email account
- Make sure you can send emails to a valid address and that it is received
- Make sure you can send emails to a non-valid address and that it gets delivered to the catch-all recipient
Setting up Catch-All for multiple domains
- This process looks the same with a couple extra steps
- Create multiple rules each pointing to the same or different catch-all destination
- For each rule, select the option Only affect specific envelope recipients and choose Pattern match
- In the Regexpr field, enter the domain that you want this rule to apply to … then test it using a sample email address from that domain
- Now test this rule from an external email account
- Make sure you can send emails to a valid address and that it is received
- Make sure you can send emails to a non-valid address at Domain1 and that it gets delivered to the intended catch-all recipient
- Make sure you can send emails to a non-valid address at Domain2 and that it gets delivered to the intended catch-all recipient
