To create an e-mail account in DirectAdmin, follow these steps:

  1. Log into DirectAdmin under your user account.
  2. Under the "E-mail Administrator" heading, go to "E-mail accounts."
  3. Click on "Create Account."
  4. Under "Username", enter the desired name of the mail account?
    This is what is in front of the "@" sign in an e-mail address.
  5. At "Password" enter the desired password, or generate one by clicking the blue button.
  6. At "E-mail quota (MB)" you can set a limit to the size of the mailbox, this limit in Megabytes.?
    When this limit is reached no more mails can be sent or received.
  7. You can set a limit on how many mails can be sent per day.
    This can be limited in the "Send Limit" option if desired.
  8. Then click on "Create Account", after this you will get a summary of the account.

The account is now created and can be used in the mail application.
