Deleting an Email Account in Plesk

Deleting an Email Account in Plesk

Learn how to remove an email account in Plesk. This is useful when a staff member leaves or an address is no longer used.

Steps

  1. Log in to Plesk via your Zeniar Portal
  2. Select Mail from the left-hand menu
  3. Tick the checkbox next to the email address you'd like to remove
  4. Click Remove
  5. Confirm the removal when asked

Important: Removing an email account permanently deletes every message in it. Save any email you need first, either by copying it to another account in your email app or by creating a backup. See Creating a Backup of Your Website in Plesk

Note: If people may still write to the address, consider forwarding it to another account before you remove the mailbox. See Setting Up Email Forwarding in Plesk

The email account has now been removed from your hosting account.
