Default Catchall???

I just noticed the thread in the announcement about the catchall.

What's a catchall address? How do I know if I have one? I know it will be banned but I don't understand what this does. Also if it uses up 40 percent of the resources, does that mean it is using up my CPU usage? I am just wondering if my emails are using up resources now.

Catchall email address is:

asdasd@yourdomainl.com
add21gasiisuasnans@yourdomain.com
etc...

All those would be accepted if catch all is enabled, and it eats up TONS of resources.

So in other words, basically any email address that wasn't set up by the domain owner? like email@yourdomain.com was set up and doogabopawall0o@yourdomain.com which wasn't set up by the domain owner is a catchall?
