Description: This article covers how to create and manage email accounts in SiteWorx, including setting up email forwarding and autoresponders.

Managing email accounts within SiteWorx is a straightforward process, allowing you to create and configure email addresses, forwarding, and autoresponders. Here's a guide to help you navigate these features:

1. Creating Email Accounts:

• Access the Email Section:
• Log in to your SiteWorx control panel.
• Navigate to the "Hosting Features" section, and then select "Email."
• Within the Email section, locate and click on "Mailboxes."
• Add a New Mailbox:
• You'll typically find an "Add" or "Create Mailbox" button. Click it.
• Fill in the required information:
• Email Address: Enter the desired email address (e.g., info@yourdomain.com).
• Password: Create a strong, secure password.
• Disk Space Quota: Specify the storage space allocated to the mailbox.
• Optionally, there may be a field to "Send Copy To" this allows for another email address to receive a copy of all emails sent to the new email address.
• Click "Add" or "Create" to finalize the creation of the email account.

2. Managing Email Accounts:

• Editing Accounts:
• In the "Mailboxes" section, you'll see a list of your existing email accounts.
• Look for an "Edit" or "Modify" option next to the account you want to change.
• You can usually modify settings like the password, quota, and forwarding options.
• Click "Save" once the desired changes have been made.
• Deleting Accounts:
• Similarly, you'll find a "Delete" or "Remove" option next to each email account.
• Be cautious, as deleting an account will permanently remove its associated emails.
• Confirm the deletion when prompted.

3. Setting Up Email Forwarding:

• Within the email management section of SiteWorx, there will be options relating to forwarders.
• You will be able to add new forwarders, that will send all emails from one address, to another.
• You will be able to edit and delete existing forwarders.

4. Setting Up Autoresponders:

• Vacation Messages:
• SiteWorx often includes a feature for setting up vacation messages or autoresponders.
• This feature might be found within the email account settings or as a separate option in the Email section.
• You can typically configure:
• The autoresponder message.
• The start and end dates (if applicable).
• Enable or disable the autoresponder.
• Some webmail applications, such as Horde or Roundcube, that are often included with Interworx, also allow for the setting of vacation messages.

Important Considerations:

• Password Security: Use strong, unique passwords for all email accounts.
• Quota Management: Monitor disk space usage to prevent mailboxes from becoming full.
• Spam Filtering: Familiarize yourself with SiteWorx's spam filtering options to reduce unwanted emails.
• Webmail Access: SiteWorx typically provides webmail access (e.g., Roundcube, Horde) for checking email through a web browser.
• Email Client Configuration: You'll need to configure your email client (e.g., Outlook, Thunderbird) with the correct server settings (IMAP/POP3, SMTP) to send and receive emails.

By following these steps, you can effectively manage your email accounts within SiteWorx.
