Change the Quota Limit
The quota limit for an address
defines the amount of mail (in Megabytes) that can be stored to
its mailbox. Once this limit is exceeded, any incoming mail will
be returned to the sender with a message stating that the
recipient’s mailbox is full.
When the quota is reached, new
incoming messages will be stored on the server for a 48-hour
period before being deleted. They will
not
be delivered to your inbox until you delete old emails.
Since a full quota will prevent
you from receiving mail, it is important to keep track of quota
usage.
Note: You will not be able to exceed the
quota set by your web host. Also, due to mail server
constraints, you cannot set a quota greater than 2048 MB. Quotas
exceeding this amount must be unlimited.
To change a mail quota:
-
Click Change Quota.
-
Type the new email quota
(in Megabytes) into the appropriate field. For an unlimited
account, click unlimited.
-
Click Change Quota
to store the new value.
Delete an Email Address
To delete an email address:

Click the Delete
link corresponding to the account you wish to remove.
-
Confirm that you wish to
delete the address by clicking Delete.
Configure an Email Client
This feature will automatically
configure your email client to access your cPanel email
address(es). An email client allows you to access your email
account from an application on your computer. Outlook® Express
and Apple® Mail are examples of email clients.
Note: You must already have an email
client installed on your computer in order to automatically
configure it using cPanel.
To configure your mail client:
-
Select and download the
appropriate configuration file from the list.
-
Run the script file to
automatically configure a mail client for the selected
address.
When completed properly, your
email client should open automatically and log into your email
account(s).
Note: If you wish to use an email client
that is not listed in this interface, you will need to manually
configure it. For more information on manually configuring an
email client, review the documentation of the client you wish to
use. Documentation can generally be found on the client's
website.
