To change an email account’s storage space in cPanel, follow these steps:

  1. Log in to your cPanel account.
  2. In theย Emailย section,ย clickย Email Accounts.
  3. Click the name of the email account whose storage space you want to change.
  4. In theย Account Informationย section,ย clickย Change Quota.
  5. In theย New Quotaย field, enter the new storage space to allocate to the email account.
  6. Click theย Saveย button.

cPanel will change the email account’s storage space. The new storage space will take effect immediately.

Note: If the email account is already using more storage space than the new quota, you will need to delete some of the email messages from the account before the new quota can take effect.

Here are some additional tips for changing an email account’s storage space in cPanel:

  • If you are unsure of how much storage space to allocate to the email account,ย you can check the current storage usage by clicking theย Storage Usageย tab in theย Email Accountsย interface.
  • You can also set a warning quota for the email account.ย This will send an email notification to the account holder when the storage usage reaches the warning quota.
  • You can also set a prohibit quota for the email account.ย This will prevent the account holder from sending or receiving email messages when the storage usage reaches the prohibit quota.
