Log into your cPanel account using your user name and password.
Click on ‘Email Accounts’ in the Email section
By default, you will see a list of email accounts that have been created. Click the ‘Add Email Account’ tab
- Add the address you want to the Email field, you do not need to add the @ symbol or the domain name
- If you have multiple domain names enabled within your account, choose the domain name you will be using
- Select a password. You can auto-generate strong passwords by clicking on the ‘Generate’ button, there is also generation options available by clicking on the down arrow to the right.
- Re-type your password in the Password (Again) field. If you’ve auto-generated a password you will need to copy and paste it.
- Select your Mailbox Quota. We recommend 500MB for accounts, but this can be increased or decreased as required.
While you can create accounts of any size, it’s important to remember that the total email storage cannot exceed the total disk space (which includes your site files). - Click Create Account
