How to Create and Manage Email Accounts in Plesk

Published on Jul 29, 2026 Updated on Sep 14, 2026 131 views

Every CyberNet hosting plan lets you create professional email addresses using your own domain (e.g. info@yourdomain.com) at no extra cost. Here's how to set them up.

1. Create a New Email Account

  1. Log into your Plesk control panel.
  2. Go to Mail in the left-hand menu.
  3. Click Create Email Address.
  4. Enter the mailbox name (the part before the @), select your domain, and set a strong password.
  5. Click OK to save.

Your new address is active immediately and can send/receive mail right away.

2. Set a Mailbox Quota

Open the mailbox you just created, go to Mailbox Settings, and set a storage quota (e.g. 1 GB or unlimited, depending on your plan). This prevents a single mailbox from consuming your entire hosting storage.

3. Accessing Your Email (Webmail)

You can check your email in a browser at https://webmail.yourdomain.com or https://your-server-ip:8443/webmail. Plesk includes both Roundcube and Horde webmail clients — pick whichever interface you prefer under Webmail.

4. Setting Up Email on Outlook, Apple Mail, or Your Phone

Use these settings in any email client:

  • Incoming (IMAP): mail.yourdomain.com, port 993, SSL/TLS
  • Outgoing (SMTP): mail.yourdomain.com, port 465, SSL/TLS
  • Username: your full email address
  • Password: the mailbox password you set in Plesk

5. Deleting or Disabling a Mailbox

Go to Mail, select the mailbox, and click Remove. This is permanent and deletes all stored messages — export or back up anything important first.
