How do I set the default address for unrouted mail in my domain?

Once logged in, make sure you are in the user panel by clicking on User Level (if you're a reseller), and then click on the domain you want to set the default address to. If you only have one domain on the account, you should be placed directly on a page with a list of options. Click on "Catch-All E-Mail", and then choose what you'd like to do. There are three options:

Fail: the user will receive a bounce email if mail is sent to the catch-all address.
Ignore: the message will just disappear. The user won't get a bounce email.
Address: the message will be sent to the email address you specify.

Once you choose one of the above three options, click on Update.
