## Accessing your email

### Webmail

Open `https://yourdomain.com/webmail` (or `https://mail.yourdomain.com`) and log in with your full email address.

### Email client configuration

| Setting             | Value                                                        |
| ------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Incoming (IMAP)** | `mail.yourdomain.com` — port `993` (SSL)                     |
| **Incoming (POP3)** | `mail.yourdomain.com` — port `995` (SSL)                     |
| **Outgoing (SMTP)** | `mail.yourdomain.com` — port `465` (SSL) or `587` (STARTTLS) |
| **Username**        | Full email address                                           |
| **Password**        | Mailbox password                                             |

<Tip>
  Use **IMAP** if you check email from multiple devices. Use **POP3** only if you want to download and delete mail from a single device.
</Tip>

## Forwarders

Automatically redirect mail from one address to another:

1. Panel → **Forwarders** → **Add Forwarder**.
2. Enter source (e.g., `sales@yourdomain.com`) and destination (e.g., `you@gmail.com`).
3. Save.

## Improving deliverability (SPF, DKIM, DMARC)

Add these DNS records so your mail doesn't land in spam:

| Type | Name                 | Value                                                   |
| ---- | -------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------- |
| TXT  | `@`                  | `v=spf1 +a +mx +ip4:YOUR_HOSTING_IP ~all`               |
| TXT  | `default._domainkey` | (DKIM key from the panel)                               |
| TXT  | `_dmarc`             | `v=DMARC1; p=quarantine; rua=mailto:you@yourdomain.com` |

The panel can auto-generate DKIM keys. See [DNS records](/web-hosting/dns) for adding records.
