What is the Scheduled Mailbox Feature?
The Scheduled Mailbox feature in Zapmail lets you queue mailbox creation for your next billing cycle. This is especially useful when you've reached the 24-hour window limit for assigning mailboxes in the current cycle.
When to use this Feature
You're unable to create new mailboxes because of the 24-hour creation restriction.
You want to ensure that new mailboxes are created automatically on your next billing date.
You’re planning your email infrastructure in advance and want mailbox provisioning to align with your plan.
Step-by-Step Guide to Schedule a Mailbox
Step 1: From the dashboard, navigate to the Mailbox section in the left sidebar.
Step 2: In the sidebar, you’ll see the option to schedule mailboxes. Click to begin.
Step 3: Fill in the following details:
First Name
Last Name
Username (for your mailbox)
Assign Domain(s) to this mailbox
Once completed, click “Assign Mailboxes” to queue them for automatic creation on your next billing date.
How to View Scheduled Mailboxes
To check your queued mailboxes, simply click on “View Scheduled Mailboxes” from the same section.
Important Notes
Scheduled mailboxes will not be created immediately. They will be provisioned only after your next billing date.
You can edit or remove scheduled mailboxes anytime before the billing date.
If your plan or billing status changes, scheduled mailboxes may not be processed—ensure your subscription remains active.
If you do not have available seats in your account at the time of scheduling, the mailbox will not be scheduled. Please ensure sufficient seats are available before assigning mailboxes.
You're All Set!
And that's it. You have scheduled your new mailbox to be created on the assigned domain on your next billing date.
