How do I create a new e-mail account?

Updated over 3 weeks ago

Step 1: Log in to cPanel

  • Sign in to your Miss Hosting account.

  • Open cPanel (your hosting control panel).

Step 2: Go to “Email Accounts”

  • Scroll down to the Email section.

  • Click on Email Accounts.
    (See the screenshot below – it’s the icon with a small person and an envelope.)

Step 3: Create Your New Email Account

Now you’re on the Email Accounts page.

  1. Look at the top-right corner – you’ll see a blue + Create button.

  2. Click + Create to add a new email address.

💡 Here you’ll also notice:

  • Available / Used – shows how many email accounts your hosting package allows and how many you’ve already created.

  • Existing accounts (if you have any) are listed here. From this page, you can also:

    • Check Email directly in your browser

    • Manage settings (change password, quota, delete account, etc.)

    • Connect Devices (get instructions for Outlook, Apple Mail, Gmail, etc.)

Step 4: Choose Your Email Address and Password

On this screen, you set the details for your new email account:

  1. Username

    • Enter the name you want for your email (for example: info, support, firstname).

    • This creates the full email address (e.g. [email protected]).

  2. Password

    • Select Set password now.

    • Enter a strong password, or click Generate to let cPanel create one for you.

    • If you generate a password, make sure to copy and store it securely.

  3. Optional Settings

    • If you want to set a storage limit for the account, click Edit Settings.

    • If left unchanged, the account will have unrestricted storage by default.

  4. Create the Account

    • When ready, click the blue + Create button.

    • The new email account is now active.


Step 5: Start Using Your Email

  • Use Webmail to access your email directly in a web browser.

  • Or click Connect Devices to view setup instructions for Outlook, Apple Mail, or Gmail.
