How To Create An Email Address On cPanel
Here is how to create an email an email account on cPanel;
- Log in to cPanel

- Navigate to the ‘Emails’ section and click on Email accounts

- Under ‘Email Accounts’ Click on ‘Create’ to be redirected to an email creation menu.

- In the ‘Username’ field, key in the name as you you would like it to be before your
domain. For example, if your domain is shltraining.me.ke, the username for our case will be reuben so that the email address becomes reuben@shltraining.me.ke

- In the ‘Password’ field, you can input your desired password or auto-generate one by clicking on ‘GENERATE’ just after the ‘Password’ field.

- After setting the password, you can scroll down and click ‘Create’ to finish creating your email address or, you can perform the following optional settings.

- Under the ‘Storage Space’ section, you can enter a custom disk storage size or select ‘Unlimited’ if you do not want to limit the amount of space for the account. The default is 1024MB.
- In the Automatically Create Folders for Plus Addressing section, selecting ‘Automatically Create Folders’ means that when you receive an email that uses plus addressing, the system will create a new folder. The server moves a message that uses plus addressing to a designated folder if the folder exists. For example, the system would place a message to user+reuben@shltraining.co.ke in the reuben folder. Selecting ‘Do Not Automatically Create Folders’ means that when you receive an email that uses plus addressing, the system will not create a new folder. Instead, it delivers the message to the inbox folder. The default selection is ‘Automatically Create Folders’ which is okay.
- Select the ‘Send welcome email with instructions to set up a mail client’ checkbox to send set up instructions to the email address. You can then click ‘Create’
