How to Create cPanel Email Accounts

cPanel allows you to set up email addresses for the domains associated with your Linux Hosting account.

1. Log in to cPanel:
   1. Browse to http://myDomainName/cpanel, where myDomainName is your domain and its suffix, like coolexample.com. You’ll need your cPanel login and Password.
   2. Or, you can get there through your Linux Hosting dashboard.
2. In the Email section, click Accounts.
3. Click Create Account.
4. Complete the on-screen fields, and then click Create Account. 

Note: The quota of your mailbox contributes to the usage of your account’s disk space and file count.

Once your email account is configured, you can access your email using cPanel’s integrated webmail options, Roundcube or Horde Mail.

1. Go to http://your domain name/webmail.
2. Log in to cPanel.
3. Choose a preferred webmail client.
4. Your selected webmail client will open.

Configuring mail clients with cPanel email

Once you have added your email accounts, cPanel’s features allow you to set up your email client for accessing the account.

1. Go to http://coolexample.com/webmail, where coolexample.com is your domain name.
2. Log in to your email address.
3. Click Configure Mail Client.
4. Next to the mail client you want to use, click the link in the Protocols column.
5. Follow any instructions or run any files that download to complete the configuration.

If the mail client or device you’d like to utilize is not shown, you can refer to the Manual Settings provided toward the end of the page.

Typical Settings

If you’re unable to reach the cPanel interface to carry out these actions, here are the usual configurations it employs:

Field	Value
Username	Your email address
Password	Your email account’s password
Incoming Server	mail.[your domain name]
Incoming Ports	IMAP — 143 POP — 110
Outgoing Server	mail.[your domain name]
SMTP (Outgoing) Port	25 (587 or 80 might also work)

Note: Every email address within a cPanel account utilizes the same limit of 250 SMTP relays (outgoing messages) per hour.
