Roundcube is the Webmail access that we include free of charge with all email services.

Thanks to Roundcube, you will be able to access your email account from anywhere without the need to install or configure email managers. All you need is a web browser (Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox...) and internet access.

How to access Roundcube?

You can access the Webmail through your domain, host or Cloud IP:

https://mail.tudominio.com/webmail/

https://ce2020123456789.dnssw.net/webmail/

https://81.25.123.123/webmail/

If you have a Hosting plan or do not know any of the above details, you will find the access address in SWPanel. To do so, access the Dashboard of your service:

Subscribe and unsubscribe folders

Subscribe folders serves to create the same folder to the mail server, that is to say, a folder in the "cloud" in which we will be able to file mails and to visualize them from any mail client configured as IMAP, like for example Outlook, Thunderbird, ...

⚠️ Remember that the folders "Inbox", "Drafts", "Sent", "SPAM" and "Trash" cannot be unsubscribed as they are special folders.
