Managing Mail Accounts

Mail service enables Internet users to send email messages to each
other. Plesk can function as your mail server. It also enables you to
create mail accounts and manage them, including performing a number of
common mail-related operations. Such operations include changing the
password for a mail account, enabling automatic replies, and so on.

To create a mail account:

Go to Mail > Create Email Address.

To access your mail account using webmail:

• In a Web browser, visit the URL webmail.example.com, where
  example.com is the Internet address of your website. When
  prompted, specify your full email address as the username (for
  example, mail@example.com), and specify the email address
  password.
• When logged in to Plesk, go to Mail, and in the list of email
  addresses, click the icon next to the email address
  you need.

To access your mail account using a mail client:

Install a mail client program on your computer and start it. Typically,
in such programs you should specify the following settings:

• Username. Specify your full email address in this field. For
  example, johndoe@example.com.
• Password. Specify the password to your email account here.
• Mail server protocol. This property defines whether you want to
  keep copies of messages on the server or not. To keep the copies on
  the server, select the IMAP option. If you do not want to keep
  them on the server, select POP3. Selecting IMAP also enables you
  to train the SpamAssassin spam filter on email messages you receive,
  if SpamAssassin is switched on on the server.
• Incoming mail server (POP3/IMAP). Specify your domain name
  here. For example, example.com. The default POP3 port is 110. The
  default IMAP port is 143.
• Outgoing mail server (SMTP). Specify your domain name here.
  For example, example.com. The default SMTP port is 25. Specify that
  the server requires authentication.

For detailed instructions on configuring your mail client, refer to your
mail client documentation.
