cPanel provides tools for creating and managing email accounts for domains hosted on your account. In the Jupiter interface, these tools appear in the Email section. In Meridian, the Email hub provides the primary account and mail-management experience, while additional enabled commands can be reached through Meridian navigation or the command palette.

Interface note: Step-by-step paths in this pack may use Jupiter-style wording such as cPanel → Email → Email Accounts. If you use Meridian, open the Email hub or locate the named command. The underlying mailbox, forwarding, filtering, and delivery concepts remain the same when those features are enabled.

Common email tools

  • Email Accounts — create and manage mailboxes.
  • Webmail — read and send email in a browser.
  • Forwarders — send copies of incoming mail to another address.
  • Autoresponders — send automatic replies.
  • Email Filters and Global Email Filters — process incoming messages according to rules.
  • Spam Filters — configure Apache SpamAssassin filtering.
  • Email Deliverability — review mail-related DNS records such as DKIM and SPF.
  • Track Delivery — review delivery results and troubleshoot message routing.

Available tools can vary by the cPanel feature list assigned to the hosting account.

Temporary cpanel.site domains do not support email services. Use an eligible registered domain with the required mail configuration.
