Can I add and create email addresses or add aliases?

Creating Email Accounts and Aliases

 

Yes, you can create email accounts and email aliases (forwarders) at any time through your cPanel control panel.

 

Creating a New Email Account

  1. Log into cPanel at https://yourdomain.com:2083
  2. Click Email Accounts in the Email section
  3. Click Create
  4. Enter the desired username (the part before @yourdomain.com)
  5. Set a strong password
  6. Optionally set a storage quota
  7. Click Create Account

 

Creating Email Aliases (Forwarders)

An email alias forwards messages to another address without needing its own mailbox. For example, you could create sales@yourdomain.com as a forwarder that sends all messages to your personal email.

  1. In cPanel, click Forwarders in the Email section
  2. Click Add Forwarder
  3. Enter the alias address and the destination email address
  4. Click Add Forwarder

 

You can also set up a catch-all address that receives email sent to any address at your domain that does not have its own account. However, be aware that catch-all addresses tend to attract spam. We recommend creating specific accounts or forwarders for the addresses you need rather than using a catch-all.
