Hello,

In Cpanel, if I click on "Read Web Mail", I can only log in with my main account email address, which is the same as the username when I log in to Cpanel.

I added an email account in the mail manager, but whenever I want to login into that account, I have to click on "Mail Manager", then "Add / Remove accounts", and finally "Read Webmail" for the address I added. It's pretty tedious, and I would rather change this email address into my "main account", so I could go straight to it by pressing on "Read Web Mail" on the Cpanel frontpage. (This is also the default email address I'm using for everything related to my website, so it's getting all the mail.)

Can someone tell me how?

Thanks,
Peter

If you want to use the default mail account, login to webmail just as you would the CPanel,
username: username
password: yourpassword

Or after you make an additional account in Mail Manager, login with,
username: username2yourdomain.com
password: yourpassword

you will be presented with an option to use Neomail or Horde.


So basically, use your main login or create any mail account in Mail Manager and access it always by going to:

http://www.yourdomain.com/webmail

Okay, now I get it. I neglected the "mydomain.com" part. Thanks. :P
