How to Create Email Accounts on AxiomHost (Professional Business Email Guide)

Introduction

Creating a professional business email like info@yourdomain.com

, sales@yourbusiness.com, or support@yourbrand.ng

is one of the most important steps when building your online presence.

AxiomHost makes it extremely easy to create and manage business emails using cPanel or your VPS email server.

This guide covers how to create email accounts for:

  • Nigerian businesses

  • US & UK companies

  • Global brands

  • Freelancers

  • E-commerce owners

  • Corporate teams

Whether you’re using Shared Hosting, Cloud Hosting, Reseller Hosting, or VPS, this guide will walk you through every step.


1. Why Use a Business Email Instead of Gmail?

✔ Looks more professional

Clients trust support@yourdomain.com

more than yourbusiness@gmail.com

✔ Better branding

Your domain strengthens your brand image.

✔ Higher deliverability

Business emails reduce spam filtering.

✔ Control & Security

You manage your own emails instead of depending on third-party free services.

AxiomHost provides fast, secure, and reliable email hosting integrated with your hosting package.


2. Creating Email Accounts Through cPanel (Most Common Method)

STEP 1 — Log Into cPanel

Go to:

???? https://yourdomain.com/cpanel


or
???? AxiomHost Client Area → Services → Login to cPanel


STEP 2 — Go to “Email Accounts”

Scroll to the Email section and click:

Email Accounts


STEP 3 — Click “Create”

You will see the form:

  • Domain: Choose the domain you want to use

  • Username: (e.g., info, support, sales)

  • Password: Create a strong password

  • Storage: Choose mailbox size (or unlimited)


STEP 4 — Click Create

Your new business email is now active.

Example:

 
 
info@yourdomain.com support@yourdomain.com admin@yourdomain.ng

3. How to Login to Your Email (Webmail)

Once your account is created, log in using:

???? https://yourdomain.com/webmail

Enter your email + password.

Choose your preferred email interface:

  • Roundcube (most recommended)

  • Horde (if available)


4. How to Add Your Email to Smartphones & Laptops

Mobile Setup

You can add your business email to:

  • iPhone Mail

  • Gmail App

  • Samsung Mail

  • Outlook Mobile

Use these settings:

Incoming (IMAP):

 
 
mail.yourdomain.com Port: 993 SSL: Yes

Outgoing (SMTP):

 
 
mail.yourdomain.com Port: 465 SSL: Yes

Laptop/Desktop Setup (Outlook, Mac Mail, Thunderbird)

Same settings as above:

IMAP Login: your full email
Password: your email password


5. Setting Up Email Routing (Important)

Go to:

cPanel → Email Routing
Select:

Local Mail Exchanger
(if your email is hosted with AxiomHost)

This ensures email is delivered properly.


6. Setting Up Spam Filters (Optional but Recommended)

cPanel → Spam Filters

Recommended settings:

  • Enable SpamAssassin

  • Enable Auto-Delete (optional)

  • Customize spam threshold

This improves inbox quality.


7. Setting Up SPF, DKIM & DMARC (Email Security)

These reduce spam and improve deliverability.

✔ SPF

Prevents unauthorized servers from sending emails with your domain.

✔ DKIM

Digitally signs your emails for authenticity.

✔ DMARC

Prevents spoofing and phishing.

AxiomHost automatically adds SPF & DKIM when your domain uses AxiomHost nameservers.
You can verify:

cPanel → Email Deliverability


8. Creating Email Accounts on VPS (CyberPanel / cPanel VPS)

If you're on VPS:

CyberPanel:

CyberPanel → Email → Create Email

cPanel VPS:

Same process as shared hosting.

Note:

Ensure DNS records (MX, SPF, DKIM) are correctly configured.


9. Common Issues & How to Fix Them

❌ “Cannot connect to mail server”

✔ Check SSL settings → must be mail.yourdomain.com
✔ Ensure DNS propagation is complete
✔ Confirm your password


❌ Emails going to spam

✔ Add SPF / DKIM / DMARC
✔ Avoid spammy subjects
✔ Use secure ports


❌ Webmail not loading

✔ Ensure SSL is active
✔ Use https://yourdomain.com/webmail
✔ Contact AxiomHost support if needed
