Support - Setting Up Mail

Please note: This tutorial only applies to mail accounts on the server cp0.adhost.com. All other customer's will have thier mail hosted on mail.adhost.com and should follow the Email link for tutorials located in the left navigation of this page.

To set an up new email account click on the email button from the cPanel® main screen and then select “Manage/Add/Remove Accounts”. At the bottom of the screen select “Add Account”, from there choose your email address, account password and mail quota (optional). Click on the “Create” button and the account will be created.

Web Mail:

Web mail can be access via the “Web Mail” button from the cPanel® home screen or via https://www.<yourdomain>:2096. From there select the web mail client you would like to use. Once you choose an web mail client it will prompt you to configure your account with your name, email address and signature (optional). From there it will take you to where you can read your email.

Configuring Accounts in Email Clients:

You can configure a cPanel® email account in any third-party email client like Outlook or Eudora. When setting up an email account, both the incoming and outgoing mail servers will be just your domain name associated with the email address. For example if your email is youremail@yourdomain.com the incoming and outgoing mail servers would be simply yourdomain.com. The user name works in a similar manner, the login would be your email username plus the domain thus if your email was youremail@yourdomain.com your login user would be youremail+yourdomain.com
