How do I check individual mailboxes?

I have created the email account satchmogamingparents.org

How do I check the message in that account?

I know it's a simple question, but I can't seem to figure it out at the moment.

Thanks.

Have you set it up with a web-mail account or POP3?

Thank you, SkipD, for the fast response.

I finally figured it out. I've set up the accounts using Mail under cPanel already, but I didn't know how to check the account.

It turned out that instead of using WebMail again, I have to go to Mail again and select the mail account, and then click on "Read". It's a bit convoluted.

I found an easier way to check the mails is using a free web service called mail2web. This service can check any POP mail account without having to register. It's fast and simple, and it's accomplished without having to log on cPanel first.

That will work. I just send mine to my Outlook Express.

you can also just use yourdomain.com/webmail or ip-address:2095 and use the full email address and password to login

Since I have 6 email accounts, (2 are ISP email addresses, then 1 for each of my domains) I setup MailWasher to check all of them via POP3 which handles my Spam filtering/learning/deletion, then download all the wanted emails via Outlook Express.

I did enable Spam Assassin, I use it's scoring to determine what MailWasher does with the email. A score of 8 or higher it just deletes. A score of 5-7 it marks as possible spam. 82% of the mail I get is Spam. 65% of the mail is Spam Assassin score of 8 or higher. I get bucket loads of spam into my Company of Valor account. :/

Keep in mind also, if you log into webmail with the main account, this account will have access to all the mailboxes on the domain.

In Horde, if you select the + sign to the right of the Inbox, it will expand. Under this you should see yourdomain.com with a + to the left of this. Click this and it should expose all of the email accounts on the domain. Each one should list: Inbox, sent-mail and spam if you have the spam box enabled.

Remember, you must check with the main account in order to see these though.

Thanks for all the tips, guys.

Alas, the day we get rid of spam, it'll be a true victory for humanity.

I think government agencies should institute cruel and unusual punishment for spammers. If they're caught, they should immediately have their spleens removed.
