Creating email accounts in cPanel

What this solves

You need one or more email addresses on your domain (e.g. info@yourdomain.com). This guide shows how to create them in cPanel.

Step 1: Open Email Accounts

Log in to cPanel and open Email Accounts.

Step 2: Create account

Click Create. Enter the local part (e.g. info, support) and choose the domain. Set a strong password (or generate one). Set the storage quota if needed. Click Create.

Step 3: Access email

Use Webmail (link in cPanel), or configure an email client (IMAP/SMTP). Server is usually mail.yourdomain.com; use full address as username.

Tip: Use a unique password per email account and enable 2FA in webmail if available.

When to contact support

If you hit account or storage limits, or can’t connect from a client, open a ticket.
