Configuration of E-Mail Advanced Hosting

To set up an email account in cPanel:

Enter your email hosting admin area

Log into your cPanel account and click on “Email Accounts”.

Click “Create” to begin.

1. This area shows the list of email addresses already existing in your email hosting account. Each email address must be unique.
2. Click ‘Create’ to start setting up a new email address.

Enter the details of the new email account

1. Enter a unique name for the email address you are creating. Typically this is created to reflect a personal company email like example@domain.com or as a representative of a business function like sales@domain.com.
2. This is the domain name that is associated with your email hosting. You won’t need to change anything here.
3. Enter a new password to associate with this email address.
4. Here you can set the amount of storage space that will be allocated to the email account. The amount of space you allocate will depend on the number of accounts you need to set up and the space available. Remember that today’s emails often come with large attachments and lack of space can result in problems receiving new emails.
5. If you are not creating this email yourself, click this option to send a welcome message to the new user. Remember that this email is sent to the account you’re creating, so you’ll still need to provide the email address and password to the user directly through other means. The welcome email can be useful as part of the onboarding process for new colleagues.
6. Once everything is complete, hit the “Create” button and you’re done!
