On a forum I manage, we have some trouble with incoming emails:
- the townhall send us email hiding the To:, the Cc: and the other fields
- some senders have a moderate spam score
- our settings are changing quite fast, and sometime we miss a category setting in our setup
For those reason, some emails bounce back, and some non-user correspondent are surprised to get an automatic reply from Discourse (they though we were just a regular mailbox).
We would like to redirect all incoming email (that is not marked as obvious spam) and that could not find a proper category on a «uncategorized incoming emails for manual review» category. Some kind of failsafe, or of «else» clause. Is it possible to add `*@forum.mysite.org` as a category email ? Is it possible with a plugin ?
We are using the [Configure direct-delivery incoming email for self-hosted sites with Mail-Receiver](https://meta.discourse.org/t/direct-delivery-incoming-email-for-self-hosted-sites/49487) app, so a method using this tool would be perfect.
Thanks for your help !

Maybe check out [IMAP support for group inboxes](https://meta.discourse.org/t/imap-support-for-group-inboxes/160588).
I think what you’re asking would take a somewhat complicated plugin (but I don’t know that code well, so it might be easier than I think).

Similar problem here: when a mail is sent to Discourse using CCI field (instead of TO or CC) and the sender receive a BadDestinationAddress email. Is it possible to make Discourse accept such a mail?
