Create a Group Email Using Forwarders cPanel
Creating a group email in cPanel is not done the same way as creating a normal mailbox. In cPanel, a “group email” is created using Email Forwarders or Mailing Lists depending on what you need.
Below are both methods so you can choose the right one.
Method 1: Create a Group Email Using Forwarders (Most Common & Simple)
This is ideal for creating addresses like:
- support@yourdomain.com → multiple team members
- sales@yourdomain.com → multiple recipients
- info@yourdomain.com → multiple inboxes
✔ How it works
One email ID forwards incoming mail to multiple recipients.
Steps
Example
If you want support@yourdomain.com to go to 3 people:
You will create 3 forwarders:
- support@yourdomain.com → ramya@yourdomain.com
- support@yourdomain.com → akash@yourdomain.com
- support@yourdomain.com → basil@yourdomain.com
This becomes your group email.
Method 2: Create a Mailing List (If You Need Advanced Features)
Use this only if you need:
- Moderation
- Subscription management
- Digest mode
- Public/Private lists
Steps
- Go to Mailing Lists in cPanel
- Create a new list (e.g., team@yourdomain.com)
- Manage members from the Mailman interface
⚠️ Note: Many hosts disable Mailman by default because it’s heavy and outdated.
