How to Add Mailboxes
To add mailboxes for the same domain:
Navigate to the Emails section of hPanel and click on anywhere next to your domain name
Click on Email Accounts and then Buy more mailboxes
You will be presented with a pop-up window where you will be able to choose how many email accounts you want to add and purchase them with just a few clicks:
To add mailboxes for a different domain, you will need to purchase a separate email plan, as each email plan can only be associated to one domain.
How Is the Additional Mailboxes Price Determined?
When you purchase additional mailboxes, all your email accounts must have the same expiration date. This means you can't have different billing periods for each mailbox.
The cost of each extra mailbox is determined by your email plan's expiration date, following this formula:
Additional mailbox price = [ (Number of months purchased × Monthly price) / ( Full plan time ÷ Time left until plan expiration) ] × Number of extra email accounts
Here's how it works:
On March 1st, you purchase one email account for one year at $30
Six months later, on September 1st, you decide to buy one more email account
You pay $15 for the additional account on September 1st. Both mailboxes, as part of the same email plan, will expire on March 1st of the next year
In this example, [(12 × 2.5)/(12 ÷ 6)] × 1 = 15
Now you know how to add more mailboxes to your Hostinger professional email plan 😊
