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.
- If you do not wish to change the quota,
click cancel.
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.
- If you wish to keep the email address, click
cancel.
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.
