Create and Manage Enom Email Mailboxes

Enom hosted email lets you create professional mailboxes on a domain you manage, each with its own address, password, and storage. This article walks you through creating a mailbox, editing its details, suspending access, and deleting a mailbox you no longer need. You manage all of these actions from the Email & Apps area of your Enom account.

About hosted mailboxes

A hosted mailbox is a full email account (for example, you@yourdomain.com) that sends and receives mail through Enom's email platform. Mailboxes can be accessed through Enom Webmail or any standard mail client over POP or IMAP. Each mailbox is assigned a storage size; see Mailbox Sizes, Quotas, and Upgrades for the available tiers.

Before you begin

• Confirm that the email service is active on the domain. If you have not set up email on the domain yet, start with Getting Started with Enom Email Service.
• Have the desired mailbox address and a strong password ready.

Step 1: Open the mailbox management area

1. Sign in to your Enom account.
2. Go to Email & Apps.
3. Under Basic email, select the domain you want to work with and click Manage.

Step 2: Create a mailbox

1. On the mailbox management page, click Create mailbox (or the equivalent add option).
2. Enter the mailbox address — the part before the @ for the selected domain.
3. Set a password that meets the complexity requirements.
4. Select a mailbox size if you are prompted to choose a storage tier.
5. Click Save (or Create) to provision the mailbox.

Step 3: Edit, suspend, or delete a mailbox

From the same mailbox management page, locate the mailbox in the list and choose the action you need.

Edit a mailbox

1. Select the mailbox and choose Edit.
2. Update the password or other available settings.
3. Click Save.

Suspend a mailbox

Suspending a mailbox blocks sign-in and mail delivery without deleting stored messages, which is useful when you need to temporarily disable access. Select the mailbox and choose Suspend; choose Unsuspend (or Restore) to re-enable it.

Delete a mailbox

1. Select the mailbox and choose Delete.
2. Confirm the deletion when prompted.
