How do I add a new email account?

Important Security Note: It is strongly advised that you do NOT use the Default email box, as it is NOT intended for actual use. It IS intended to be a "catch-all" for unrouted (spam) mail. You need to create new email addresses for your active mail use. If you must use the Default email, then security can not be as effective and you'll have to put up with the junk mail.

  • Go to your CPanel control panel ( http://yourdomain.com/cpanel/ )
  • Click on the Manage Accounts link in the eMail area.
  • Click on the Add Account link.
  • Enter the first part of the email address and the password for the account in Email and Password fields.
