How to set up an email account in cPanel Print

  • 0

This tutorial will teach you how to create POP email accounts.

These accounts will be based off of your domain name(s). This tutorial will assume that you are logged into your cPanel. If you are having trouble doing that, please see the tutorial named "How to Login to cPanel".

To add a new email address:

  1. Type the email address to be created in the Email field.
    • If you manage more than one domain, make sure to select the appropriate domain from the pull-down menu.
  2. Type the password in the Password field.
  3. Retype the password in the Password (again) field.
    • You can click the Password Generator link to have a strong password generated for you. For more information, read our Password Generatordocumentation.
  4. Type the quota in the Mailbox Quota field.
    • The quota defines how much hard drive space the account will be allowed to use.
    • PICK Important: Due to mail server constraints, quotas cannot be greater than 2048 MB. Quotas exceeding this amount must be unlimited.
  5. Click Create Account.

Existing addresses are displayed in a table. Using this table, it is possible to:

  • See how much disk space the account uses.
  • Change a password.
  • Change a quota limit.
  • Delete an email address.
  • Access an account through webmail.
  • Configure a mail client.
