Setting up Custom Email Accounts in cPanel

If you have a Linux Shared Hosting plan, you can easily set up professional email addresses (e.g. contact@yourdomain.com) inside cPanel:

1. Log in to your cPanel dashboard from the HostSafe Client Area.
2. Scroll to the "Email" section and click on "Email Accounts".
3. Click the "+ Create" button on the right side.
4. Select your domain from the dropdown, enter the desired username (e.g., info), and set a secure password.
5. Allocate the storage space limit for this mailbox, or set it to unlimited.
6. Click "Create" at the bottom.

To access your webmail, navigate to https://yourdomain.com/webmail in your web browser and sign in with the full email address and password you just created.
