How to create and manage email accounts in cPanel.

One of the great perks of having your own domain is creating professional email addresses like yourname@yourdomain.com. With cPanel, setting up and managing these accounts is straightforward. Here’s how you can do it:


1. Log In to Your cPanel Account

  • Go to yourdomain.com/cpanel in your web browser.
  • Enter your username and password.
  • Click “Log in” to access your cPanel dashboard.

2. Find the Email Section

  • Once inside cPanel, scroll down or use the search bar to find the “Email” section.
  • Click on “Email Accounts.”

3. Create a New Email Account

  1. Click the “Create” Button (usually at the top right).
  2. Choose the Domain you want to use if you have multiple domains.
  3. Enter the Username
  4. Set a Password
    • Use the generator for a strong password or create your own.
  5. Set Mailbox Storage Space (optional)
    • You can limit the mailbox size or leave it as “Unlimited.”
  6. Click “Create”
    • That’s it! Your new email account is ready to use.

4. Managing Email Accounts

After creating accounts, you’ll see a list of all emails under “Email Accounts.” Here’s what you can do next:

A. Accessing Webmail

  • Next to the email account, click “Check Email” to log into webmail (usually via Roundcube or Horde).
  • You can send, receive, and organize your emails directly from your browser.

B. Changing Passwords

  • Click “Manage” next to the account.
  • Enter a new password and save changes.

C. Adjusting Mailbox Quota

  • In the “Manage” area, you can increase or decrease the storage limit for each account.

D. Setting Up Email on Devices

  • Click “Connect Devices” for instructions and automatic configuration scripts for Outlook, Apple Mail, and other email clients.
  • You’ll also find manual settings (IMAP, SMTP, POP3) if you prefer to set things up yourself.

E. Deleting an Email Account

  • Click “Manage” next to the account.
  • Scroll down and click “Delete Email Account” if you no longer need it.

5. Useful Tips

  • Use Strong Passwords: This helps keep your email secure.
  • Regularly Clean Up: Delete old or unused accounts to free up space and reduce clutter.
  • Set Up Forwarders or Autoresponders: These features, also found in the Email section, let you automatically forward emails or send out-of-office replies.

Final Thoughts

With cPanel, creating and managing professional email addresses is just a few clicks away. Whether you’re setting up your first account or managing a team, you’ll find all the tools you need right at your fingertips.
