Just where are those emails stored on your server? For emails that have been delivered, here is how:
Log into cPanel, click the “File Manager” icon. Go to the directory named (appropriately) “mail.” (Your “public_html” directory is at the same level directory as “mail.”) When you have only one, default, email set up, you will find what appears to be files for “inbox,” “saved-messages,” “sent-mail” and possibly others depending on how much you have used this email account.
After you have set up several email addresses, you will find additional directories in your “mail” directory that match the email addresses. Open one of these and you will find additional files that contain the email for this email address.
You can also look for email by logging in via FTP using your favorite FTP software. Most accounts are set up so that upon log in, you are at your “home” directory. Click around just like above and you will see where email is located.
Sometimes after deleting an email address, cPanel does not delete all the files for that email address. Now that you know where email is stored, you can delete files and directories yourself to clean up and free up disk space.

Is there a “remember me” checkbox feature anywhere to keep a cookie on your computer so you don’t have to log in to webmail each and every time? If there isn’t, consider it as a feature request.
thx
There is not. You can let your browser remember your login and password so you do not have to re-type it.
Also, after you log out and leave the browser window open (it says that you have been logged out). When you use the link in that window to “Click here to log in again” you do not have to log in again.
Don’t know the login/logout code and am just taking an educated guess, but I believe the cookie is killed for security reasons after the browser window is closed. But when you leave the browser window open, you do not have to log in again.
