CMD_API_EMAIL_CATCH_ALL failing?

[trophaeum]

trying to automatically set a catchall after a domain is created with the following code using the httpsocket wrapper ($this->socket is the class and it works with other api queries) however when doing the below with $destination as an email address it just returns :fail: which is what it is currently set to and doesnt update it, any hints here or is this a DA bug?

        function catchallEmail($domain,$destination=null) {
                $data = array();
                $data['domain'] = $domain;
                switch ( $destination ) {
                        case ':fail:':
                        case ':blackhole:':
                                $data['catch'] = $destination;
                                break;
                        case null:
                                break;
                        default:
                                $data['catch'] = 'address';
                                $data['name'] = $destination;
                }
                var_dump($data);
                $this->socket->query('/CMD_API_EMAIL_CATCH_ALL', $data);
                var_dump($this->socket->fetch_parsed_body());
                return $this->socket->fetch_parsed_body();
        }
