Email Account Password Reset in cPanel

Typically, the email accounts we create in cPanel are not associated with any private email, so there is no way to reset a password from the user’s side. Only a system administrator has the capability to do so. In this brief tutorial, we will show you how to update the password for email accounts in your cPanel.

One of the important aspects of email management is regularly resetting the password of existing email accounts. To ensure better security, it is recommended to change the password of email accounts frequently. We can reset the password of an email account either through cPanel or via Webmail. The steps to reset the email password are listed below.
