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 willnot 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.

Address

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
