    • Email address. Type the left part of the email address before the @ sign, and if you have multiple domain names in your account, select the domain name under which the email address will be generated.
    • Can be used to log in to Plesk. Select this option if you want Plesk to create an additional user for the mail account owner. By default, this user has the role of application user. You can change this role and other user settings later.
    • Password. Set the password to access the mailbox. If you keep the option Can be used to log in to Plesk selected, the user uses the mailbox password as well to sign in to Plesk.
