How To Configure Email Clients With cPanel Scripts

Within cPanel you can find some auto-configure scripts that will allow you to easily add one of your e-mail accounts in the following email clients.

- Microsoft Outlook
- Microsoft LIVE Mail
- Outlook Express
- Mac Mail 
- Any POP3 / IMAP capable phone

To do this:

1.  Log into the cPanel account for the domain you want to set up
2.  Click Accounts  (called Email Accounts on the old x3 cPanel theme)
3.  Locate the e-mail account you want to use (or add it if has not been set up)
4.  Click the More drop-down button next to the account
5.  Select Configure Mail Client

Clicking this option will show you your POP3 / IMAP details, including your hostname, username, port and password.

You also have the option to download an auto-configure script which should set up your new e-mail account in your mail client for you without the need to manually enter any details. 

If your mail client is not listed, you can still manually setup the e-mail account using the detail provided.
