'Catch all' is a form of 'dead letter office', wherein one places traffic with
no genuine/identifiable adressee. You really don't want to go there, as it is
nearly all spam/mal-code, not spelling-errors, and is lmited only by lax rules
and available bandwidth.

Google 'Big brother archiving', 'Facist Logging', 'shadow transport' 'unseen
(routers)' to find what you want on records retention.

Bring lots of disk space, and file away a copy for yourself of the 'Company
Policy' announcement to staff making them aware that this will be in effect, as
well as a 'CYA' letter from Corporate Legal Department w/r 'law of the land' in
(at least) your own jurisdiction.

Not to mention other jurisdictions where your firm's correspondents reside that
you may someday wish to visit freely ...
