How to use webmail from within cPanel
The Webmail allows you to access your email from any computer that has a web browser and an internet connection.
The easiest way to access your Webmail interface is by visiting http://your-domain.com/webmail, where your-domain.com is your actual domain name or through the cPanel:
- Email Accounts >> More >> Access Webmail:
Clicking on the Access Webmail through the Email Accounts section in your cPanel, will log you in to the default system email account.
Please do not use that email account to send emails, but instead create a new one.
To create a new email account and access it's webmail, go to cPanel >> Mail >> Email Accounts >> Add Email Account
