Setting up a catchall (Google Apps)

This is the Nachoman guide to creating a catchall.

What is a Catchall? A catch-all mailbox allows you to receive email sent to your domain that might be misaddressed or misspelled (for example, bob@ instead of robert@yourdomain.com) — even mail sent to email addresses at your domain that don't exist — rather than having the email "bounced," or returned to the sender. But, we use it to generate fake emails for promos in order to bypass the one email limit.

Where do I get my domain? My suggestion is to buy them from godaddy. You can usually find a coupon or code for a 1 dollar .com for a year. They also have various promos and such allowing you to purchase them from godaddy cheeply.

What do I do with my domain? After you purchase your domain you need to sign up with google apps here: https://www.google.com/a/cpanel/domain/new

After, you will need to login to your godaddy account and point everything and such. Its all step by step in pics for you in the google apps setup. If you need help ask and we will assist as much as possible

But thats pretty much it. It really is easy to setup and easy for you to understand..

Here is the steps for setting up the catchall once your google apps account is setup

To create a catch-all address for delivering messages addressed to non-existent recipients:
Log into the Google Apps control panel for your domain.

Click the Settings tab and then select Email in the left column.

(Free edition) In the Catch-all address section, select the Forward the mail to: radio button.
(Other editions) In the Email routing section, select the Route to catch-all address: radio button.

Enter the user name to which mail addressed to unknown users will be forwarded.

The user name must be a valid account in your domain. Do not include the domain name; Google Apps automatically adds @your-domain to the address.
Click Save changes.

Just set the email address to your main account on the google apps. Then you can login through gmail to check your emails for that domain.

EDIT - Solved my problem, I carelessly overlooked the email settings on the GoDaddy homepage. Sorry about that.
