  Dedicated Hosting, Shared hosting, WHM

The email client setup lets you easily setup email client access in cPanel.  You can automatically configure and connect email accounts from cPanel directly to your desired email application, for example, Outlook or Mail for Mac. To do this, head to Email > Email Accounts within your cPanel.

To setup the email client access you’ll need to first have an existing email account created.

  1. Make sure to select Email Accounts at the top and scroll down to the email account you wish to set up, click on Connect Devices.

2. Click on the Set Up Mail Client link from the drop down.
3. Review the list of email Applications and choose the one you want by clicking on the Protocol link next to it.

4. Existing email client application must already be installed on your computer

If for some reason you have any issues with the auto configuration here are the Manual Settings for you to follow:
