How to create and manage email accounts
1 ViewsFrom your Extra Administrator panel you can create as many email accounts as your hosting plan includes, as well as manage passwords, quotas, and forwarding.
Creating a new email account
- Log in to Virtualmin with your Extra Administrator account.
- Go to Email → Users and Aliases (or "Edit Mail Aliases", depending on the theme).
- Click Add a Mail User.
- Enter a username (e.g. "info"), a password, and optionally a storage quota.
- Save the changes with Create.
Your new address will be user@yourdomain.com.
Setting up email on your device
You can use Webmail directly at https://yourdomain.com:20000/, or configure a client such as Outlook, Thunderbird, or your phone's mail app with these settings (check with support for the exact values for your server):
- Incoming server (IMAP): yourdomain.com, port 993 (SSL)
- Outgoing server (SMTP): yourdomain.com, port 465 (SSL) or 587 (STARTTLS)
- Username: your full email address
Changing an email account's password
In Email → Users and Aliases, click the account and edit the password field. Save with Save.
Forwarding and autoresponders
From the same section you can set up forwarding to another address or enable an autoresponder (for example, for vacations) by editing the corresponding account.
