    yes..it is possible to enable/disable webmail access for a particular domain.

    SSH into the server as root and edit the file:

    /var/cpanel/users/username

    Now, if you want to disable all webmails then add below lines:

    skiphorde=1
    skipsqmail=1
    skipneomail=1

    Restart cPanel using /etc/init.d/cpanel restart

    That's it!

    Thanx, I see you can also disable it on a per account basis, for a particular domain, in the Webmail Configuration for that domains

    This does not work in my install, and we've upgraded just a few days ago.

    The way to disable Webmail for a specific account (not for a domain) would be to create a feature list in WHM > Packages > Feature Manager and to uncheck Webmail for that feature list. At that point, create a package with that feature list in WHM > Packages > Add a Package area. After creating the package, then assign the account to that package in WHM > Modify/Upgrade Multiple Accounts area.

    Using the previously provided skip options in /var/cpanel/users/username file will not work. This thread was from 2008 and, while I cannot state it did or did not work in 2008, I can state that oftentimes options do change and it isn't advisable to use suggestions from this many years ago if possible.
