    Default cPanel user only for mail section

    Hi all

    Is it possible to create a second user/password to login to cPanel and only have access to the Mail section?

    So there would be two admins for a domain:
    Mainadmin: gets the full monty
    Mailadmin: gets the cPanel Mail skin and access only to the mail functions.

    TIA

    Not sure if this is what you mean, but when you create an email account, that user can access webmail only by simply visiting yourdomain.com/webmail/
    There are options enabled on that page for the user to adjust if they need to.

    I'm not sure if the mailskin only is used any longer in cPanel11, haven't checked it recently. But it was for when you created a new cPanel account in WHM. You'd set that new account to use the mailonly skin if thats the type of account you were selling.

    cPanel doesn't support the concept of split admin privileges at that level. Email account users can only configure options for their specific accounts, while the cPanel user has authority over all the email accounts.

    Thanks, I kind of figured that was the case, but I wanted to check.
