Problem Statement
Getting error while creating an email account from cPanel.
Error Message

Solution
Usually, this error occurs when the /etc directory is removed. This directory contains a specific user's email account password and other configuration details.
To fix this issue, you need to create a /etc directory.
- Navigate to path /home/username/
cd /home/username/ - Create /etc directory
mkdir etc
