G+_Aaron Vanderpool Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 First off I just wanted to say that I love the show. Can you folks perhaps do an episode on creating a Catch-All email account? Since Google Apps went paid, I haven't found a really good, free alternative (maybe Wordpress). Thanks!

G+_Steve C Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 What do you mean by "Catch-All email account"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Aaron Vanderpool Posted September 3, 2013 Author Share Posted September 3, 2013 Steve Gibson referred to it in a Security Now episode (I can't remember which one). Instead of using your own "personal" email address, when signing up for websites, etc. you would use the Catch-All. Cuts down on spam, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Ryan Grange Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 GoDaddy lets you set up a catchall on their servers. They used to offer a set of free mail accounts with your domain registration, one of which you could use as a catch-all. Alternatively, you can sign up for those websites using plus addressing and a free gmail account. Just create a filter to bin any emails to you that don't include the (plus)something in case anyone thinks they'll be smart and strip out that part of the address.
