    http://webmail.domain.com
  2. A login screen will open. Type the full email address and password that you specified during creation of your mailbox and click Log in.

  2. Click Mail Accounts > Mail Settings.
  3. Select the checkbox for "Activate mail service on domain" to enable it. Uncheck the box to disable it.

What if it's an addon domain. How would I go about accessing webmail for the addon domain, not the main domain?

HostGator
Addon domains use the exact same method. Just be sure your domain is registered and you point the nameservers to us.

I have add on domain and webmail.addondomain.com does not work for me. It is working fine for my main domain. Please advise what I am doing wrong...

This article is for Windows Dedicated, not Linux Shared.

Instead, you will need to visit http://your-domain.com/webmail (where your-domain.com is the name of your domain).
