- Q. How Do I Access my Mailboxes?
In the DirectAdmin environment, each mail account that you create will automatically have certain mailboxes:
INBOX INBOX.Drafts INBOX.Sent INBOX.Trash spam
To access any of these, follow the "Webmail: Squirrelmail" link near the middle of the DirectAdmin main menu. When you see a login screen, log in using the name and password for the mail account that you wish to access. E.g., the login name might be joe@example.com. You will now be logged in using the Squirrelmail interface. You will see your mailboxes on the left-hand side of the screen. Click on any of them to see mail in that mailbox.To read mail in a different account, log out of Squirrelmail (with the "Sign Out" link), then log in again using the name and password for the other mail account.

Accessing Spam Folders
If you have set up any filters on the "SPAM Filters" screen, and if you selected the "Send to spambox" option, then any matching email will be delivered into the "spam" folder listed above.
If you have enabled SpamAssassin on the "Spamassassin Setup" screen, and if you selected the option "Send the spam to the appropriate users's spam folder.", then any spam that is detected will be delivered into the same "spam" folder mentioned above.
If you selected "Redirect it to the catch-all ~/.spamassassin/spam folder" on the "Spamassassin Setup" screen, then any detected spam will go into a shared spam mailbox. To access this shared spam mailbox, you will log in as the DirectAdmin user that owns the domain (e.g., "joeuser" and not "joe@example.com) and then use Squirrelmail as described below.
SPAM FOLDER WARNING
If you are saving incoming spam into a spam folder as discussed above, be sure to check the spam folder about once a day or more often, and purge it of unwanted messages. Otherwise the spam folder will continue to grow bigger and bigger until it will use up all your available disk space.
