Email Accounts in cPanel is where you create and manage mailboxes for domains hosted on the account. A mailbox has its own password and storage quota.
Create a new mailbox
- Open Email Accounts in cPanel and choose Create.
- Select the correct domain if more than one domain is available.
- Enter the part of the address before the @ symbol.
- Set a strong password, or use the password generator.
- Choose an appropriate storage limit and create the account.
Change a mailbox password
If an old device keeps trying the previous password, it can cause repeated authentication failures. Update all devices promptly.
- Open Email Accounts.
- Find the mailbox and choose Manage.
- Enter a new strong password and save the change.
- Update the password on every phone, computer and mail application that uses the mailbox.
Check the mailbox quota
The Email Accounts screen shows storage usage for each mailbox. If a mailbox is close to its limit, remove mail that is no longer needed or increase the quota if the hosting plan has enough free space.
