How to Log into Webmail

How to Log into Webmail

There are two ways that you can log into Webmail:

  1. Access webmail through cPanel (administrator access only)
  2. Access webmail via direct links (for email users)

Access Webmail via Direct Link

If your domain has propagated, you can access webmail by typing any of the following URLs into your browser's address bar. In the samples below, substitute "example.com" with your actual primary domain or addon domain name.

http://www.example.com/webmail

You can also access Webmail by going through the default webmail port 2095:

http://www.example.com:2095

The following method does not work for addon domains:

http://webmail.example.com

Accessing Horde or RoundCube via Direct Link

As an alternative to webmail, you can utilize one of the two default webmail clients through a direct URL – Horde or Roundcube. Enter one of the following URLs in your browser's address bar, replacing "example.com" with your primary domain name.

Horde:

https://www.example.com:2096/horde/index.php

RoundCube:

https://www.example.com:2096/3rdparty/roundcube/index.php
Note: Due to how the shared SSL works, you will have to accept the certificate warning to access the webmail interface after navigating to the URL provided above.

Logging in to Webmail

Once you go to any of the addresses above, you will be prompted for your email address and password.

Note: You are not being asked for your cPanel username and password.
