[Case 190397] Incorrect password text under "Configure Mail Client" in cPanel

[sparek-3]

When you create a cPanel account:

Domain: accounttester.org
UserName: accountt
PassWord: areallybadpassword

Then log into the cPanel and create an email account with the same Username part as the main account's username, i.e.:

[email protected]

(Note - accountt@accounttester.org - accountt is the same as the main cPanel account username - accountt)

The Mail Client Configuration page lists:

Username: [email protected]
Password: Use your cPanel password.

As the mail settings to use.

This is wrong.

This should say:

Username: accoun[email protected]
Password: Use the email account’s password.

For any other email account that is created - i.e. [email protected] - the information in the Mail Client Configuration page is correct:

Username: somethi[email protected]
Password: Use the email account’s password.

This appears to be present in cPanel 11.46.3.6 and cPanel 11.48.4.4. In paper_latern and x3.
