Configuring email clients such as Outlook, Thunderbird, or Apple Mail to access your cPanel email accounts allows you to manage emails from your preferred software. Here's how to set up an email client:
- Open your preferred email client.
- Choose the option to add a new email account.
- Select the account type (IMAP or POP3). We recommend using IMAP for synchronization across devices.
- Enter your full name and the email address you want to configure.
- Choose the incoming and outgoing mail servers (usually in the format mail.yourdomain.com).
- Enter your email address and password.
- Configure the port settings for both incoming and outgoing servers (typically 993 for IMAP and 465 for SMTP with SSL/TLS).
- Choose whether to use SSL/TLS for security.
- Complete the setup process, and your email client will test the connection.
- Once the connection is successful, your cPanel email account is configured in the email client.
You can now send and receive emails using your preferred email client.
