  4. Click Manage on the account you want to change Manage Email
  5. Enter a new password in the text box New Password Change Password

Once you update the password, you will need to update your mail clients' passwords as well, otherwise they will not be able to authenticate with the server.

Testing Access

  1. To test your details by going to the name of the server you are on, you can check this by looking at the URL bar on your browser when you go to your cPanel account, e.g. tongariro.myhost.nz  or aspiring.webslice.co.nz. You can add /webmail to the end to access the web mail client, e.g. tongariro.myhost.nz/webmail or aspiring.webslice.co.nz/webmail, or whatever the name of the server your cPanel is hosted on.

  2. Enter your details and click Login In
