In order to send or read received email messages, you will need to log in to your email account. Under the cPanel hosting platform, this is called webmail. Of course you may configure and email client like outlook or Gmail app and use that for sending and reading mails, in which case you will not need to login to webmail. However, for this article, my focus is on webmail.
Therefore, in this article, you will learn how to login to your cPanel webmail to be able to access the email accounts you created through your cPanel hosting account. Let's get started.
Visit your webmail login URL. For HostZion cPanel hosting accounts, use the URL https://webmail.hostzion.net. You can also replace hostzion.net above with your domain name.
Enter your email address and password and click Login.
On the next welcome screen, select your preferred webmail client. At the time of writing this article, we support both roundcube and horde. If you don't want to see this screen for the subsequent logins, select the option Open my inbox when I login.
Click the Open button.
This will let you in to your mailbox.
Yes, you just logged in to your email account. You can now start composing and reading emails.
There are a number of email options and settings on the welcome screen above, but we ignored them for now. This is because this article is only about how to login and access your email account via the cPanel webmail interface.
We shall look at other options like email client configurations, automatic replies, spam filters, among others in other articles.
