How to create an email account for my domain name?


Creating an email account for your domain name is very easy with the control panel (cPanel) your SiteGround hosting account has.


In this section you will find answers of the following questions:


How to access the cPanel?

To access your cPanel you need to be logged into your Customer Area first. From the Customer Area index click on the icon My Account Section.

SiteGround Web hosting: Manage Accounts

On the next page, look for the button Go in the cPanel column of the account table.

cPanel - Go Button

In order to login to the cPanel successfully, you need to use the cPanel username and password. SiteGround has initially sent this login information with the Welcome Email. If you do not keep the email you can see the username and reset the password from your Customer Area as described here.


How to create an email account from the cPanel?

From the cPanel home, you need to proceed to the Email Accounts icon.

cPanel - Mail

From the Email Accounts section proceed to the Add a New Email Account form.

cPanel - Add Email Account

In the spaces provided, please type the name of the account, the password and the disk space you would like to dedicate to this mailbox. By default it is set to 250MB. To finish, press the Create button.

Please note that no more than 5,000 MB of a Linux shared hosting account can be allocated to the email accounts associated with this hosting account.
