Accessing webmail in Plesk
Find out how to access Plesk e-mail accounts using webmail, with detailed instructions (and video) on both accessing your mail through Plesk and webmail directly.
This article describes how to access Plesk e-mail accounts using webmail.
Note
Plesk is no longer included with new hosting.com plans, but it is still available on legacy Managed WordPress accounts. You can install Plesk manually on unmanaged VPS and Dedicated servers.
Webmail enables you to check your e-mail accounts by using your web browser. You can compose and read e-mail messages, maintain an address book, and perform other common tasks. Third-party e-mail client applications, such as Thunderbird and Microsoft Outlook Express, generally provide more features than webmail applications, but also require more initial configuration.
