This article will guide you how to add an email account in SmarterMail 16 by login as a domain administrator.
If you have a control panel (Solid CP or Plesk Panel) configured on your Windows VPS, we recommend you to add the email account from the control panel instead of the SmarterMail Interface directly. Please follow the below articles to add the email account from the control panel.
