How to create a POP mail account in cPanel

This tutorial will show you how to create a POP email account in cPanel.

NOTE: You already have default POP email account setup - it's yourusername@yoursite.com where yourusername is the user name provided to you in your Welcome Email.

Enter the name of your new POP email account. Ensure that the proper domain is selected in the drop down menu. Now create a password. It should be a 6-8
alpha-numeric characters and should not contain your username.

Optionally, you may also specify a maximum disk space quota for the account. In this example, the default setting is 250 MB.

Well done! As you can see, you have successfully created a POP email account. You can click to configure the account to work in your favorite mail client program. You may always return here to create a new account, login to manage your mail through Webmail, change the quota for the mailbox, change the password, configure the mail client or delete the account altogether.

That's all there is to it. Now don't forget to setup your new email account in your favorite email program (eg., Outlook Express ).
