Create an email account


To add a new email address, perform the following steps:



  1. Enter the email address that you wish to create in the Email text box. If you manage more than one domain, make certain to select the appropriate domain from the menu.

  2. Enter and confirm the new password in the appropriate text boxes.

    Notes:



    • The system evaluates the password that you enter on a scale of 100 points. 0 indicates a weak password, while 100 indicates a very secure password.

    • Some web hosts require a minimum password strength. A green password Strengthmeter indicates that the password is equal to or greater than the required password strength.

    • Click Password Generator to generate a strong password. 






  3. Enter the quota in the Mailbox Quota text box. The quota defines the amount of disk space the account may use to store email.


    Important:



    • Due to mail server constraints, you cannot assign quotas that exceed 4096000 MB (4096 GB or 4 TB).You must assign the unlimited value for quotas that exceed this amount.

    • The system calculates mailbox quota use every four hours. For this reason, you may not receive notifications immediately if an email account reaches or exceeds its quota.






  4. To send client configuration instructions to the account, select the Send welcome email with mail client configuration instructions. option.


    Note:

     

    The user can access this message via Webmail, or you can send the message to another mailbox with the Email Instructions option in the Set Up Email Client interface.





  5. Click Create Account. The system automatically sends an email to the newly-created email account with a link to the iPhone autoconfigure script.
