One option would be to use mod_rewrite, which you could use to have your users simply browse to domain.com/email then be taken directly to their webmail login. You will need to know beforehand which webmail client they will be using. This example covers SquirrelMail.
Place the following in an .htaccess file in their public_html directory:
Of course, you will need to replace "domain.com" in the example above with their actual domain. Then, have them browse to domain.com/email, and they will be redirected to the secure login for SquirrelMail.
NeoMail: https://domain.com:2096/neomail/neomail.pl
Horde: https://domain.com:2096/horde/index.php
If this is for an Addon Domain, place the .htaccess file in their addon domain's directory (e.g., /home/username/public_html/addon_dir/.htaccess).
* Note that I used "email" instead of "webmail", because cPanel already has a ScriptAlias in httpd.conf to handle requests made to "/webmail"
Place the following in an .htaccess file in their public_html directory:
Code:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^email$ https://[b]domain.com[/b]:2096/3rdparty/squirrelmail/index.php [R=permanent,NC,L]NeoMail: https://domain.com:2096/neomail/neomail.pl
Horde: https://domain.com:2096/horde/index.php

Have you tried the e-mail login?
Cpanel will automatically make you an e-mail account with your cpanel username and password, so to check, make an e-mail that is set, for example. [email protected] with password of password.
Your login will be [email protected] then your password will be password. That will allow you to login to your e-mail and you will not be able to move through anyother part of cpanel. Notice that your login name is your e-mail not just the first part, that is how it is supposed to work. hope this helps you.
If you enter your cpanel info, yes you will be given access but that is not what you need.
Have your clients follow the same basic setup as I just sudjested, and then you will have no issues.
