A professional email address at your own domain (like hello@yourdomain.com) builds trust with customers. Here's how to create your first email account in minutes.
Create the Email Account in cPanel
In cPanel, go to Email > Email Accounts and click Create. Enter a username (e.g., hello), choose your domain, set a strong password, and set a mailbox quota. Click Create.
Access Your Email via Webmail
You can read email immediately through Webmail. Go to yourdomain.com/webmail, log in with your full email address and password. We recommend Roundcube as the webmail client β it's clean and fast.
Set Up on Your Phone or Desktop App
To use your email in Outlook, Apple Mail, or a mobile app, you'll need these settings:
- IMAP server: mail.yourdomain.com β Port 993 (SSL)
- SMTP server: mail.yourdomain.com β Port 587 (TLS)
- Username: your full email address
- Password: the email account password
Send a Test Email
Send a test email to a Gmail or personal address to confirm delivery works. If email is going to spam, you may need to set up SPF and DKIM records β see the Email Setup category for a detailed guide.
