## Create a new email account

Remember that in order to create an email account, you must have a registered domain delegated to a hosting plan.

1. Log in to your [Client Area](../../../client-area/accessing-the-client-area.md) and click on **Services** and then **My Services**.

## Other methods

You can also create an email account by accessing the control panel (cPanel or Plesk) directly from your [Client Area](../../../client-area/accessing-the-client-area.md).

1. On the same screen, after choosing the hosting plan, you will see the **Quick Shortcuts** box with access to the email account configuration area in the control panel used by your account.
