With our shared hosting<\/strong><\/a> plans, we provide an infinite number of email accounts. While this may seem like a positive thing, it could backfire if a client on your server decides to start spamming, or if your account is compromised and used to send hundreds of spam emails. The server’s speed will suffer as a result of the excessive CPU utilization, which will also impact other valid emails that attempt to exit the server. To set the hourly limit for your server, follow the instructions below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Log into your WHM<\/strong> account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the left hand sidebar, search for the Account Functions<\/strong> category and click on the Modify An Account<\/strong> option.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

With this, you will get a list of account on the server, you can select the account you want to work with and click the Modify<\/strong> button at the bottom.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

You will now be taken to a list of options for the selected account. Go down until you see the option Maximum Hourly Email by Domain Relayed<\/strong>. Ensure that by default, the Unlimited<\/strong> radio button is selected. Choose the radio button besides the second field and enter the maximum number of emails you want to allow the domain to send.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Here we have taken the standard 250 emails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Click on the Save<\/strong> button at the bottom to confirm and activate the new setting. The cPanel account is now set to the limit you have assigned.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
