   Well maybe the nomenclature is confusing. Imail has a feature
   called the "nobody" alias. You simply add an alias to a domain and
   name it "nobody" and point it to a valid account. It will then
   receive all mail for the domain that is not addressed to a valid
   account or alias. This is normally what is discussed as "catchall".

   On the other hand if you mean by "catchall" something that actually
   will copy all of the mail to a domain then you can attempt to
   accomplish that with rules but I think that may miss local
   deliveries.

   The only other option I think is to check the copy all mail and
   then use rules to eliminate what you do not want.

   All of these issues have been discussed in the list archives and
   I've seen articles in the knowledge base and the manual if you need
   further research.

P> and about the NUL, would that be set through the alias, or

   Imail uses the term "NUL" to mean delete.  So if you forward
   something to NUL then it is deleted.  It can be used in Aliases,
   accounts, and rules or at least that's my belief.
