# Webmail Clients
# Overview
Webmail clients provide access to your Webmail email account. They may also include features like calendars and other Webmail services.
!! Important:
!! cPanel & WHM ships with the Roundcube Webmail client. If you have installed [other third-party Webmail clients](https://docs.cpanel.net/webmail/webmail-clients/#other-clients) , they may also appear in the [*Webmail*](https://docs.cpanel.net/webmail/the-webmail-interface) interface.
## Roundcube
Use the Roundcube Webmail client to sort, view, and send email. It’s useful if you need a friendly-to-use interface with additional spam-related features. Roundcube also includes mobile email access.
### Automatically open inbox
Select the *Open my inbox when I log in* checkbox in the *Webmail* interface to automatically open Roundcube when you log in to Webmail.

### Interface mode
Roundcube supports the `light` and `dark` interface modes.
Initially, Roundcube uses the interface mode set by your web browser. If the browser sets the `dark` interface mode, Roundcube displays the `dark` mode. If the browser does not set an interface mode, Roundcube displays the `light` mode.
You can also set the interface mode via the `Dark mode` () or `Light mode` () icon in the lefthand menu bar. The browser remembers the setting the next time you log in to Roundcube.
## Other clients
Use other third-party clients by using the *Mail Client Manual Settings*. To automatically open your third-party client when you log in to Webmail, perform the following steps:
1. Select *Configure Mail Client* from the *Other Webmail Features* section in the *Webmail* interface.
2. Check for an automatic configuration script in the *Mail Client Automatic Configuration Scripts* section. Currently, cPanel provides automatic configuration scripts for the following applications:
* iOS for iPhone/iPad/iPod
* MacOS Mail
* Windows Live Mail
3. If an automatic configuration script is available, click your selected security protocol to proceed.
4. If your intended Webmail client does **not** come with an automatic configuration script, proceed to the *Mail Client Manual Settings* interface and use the secure SSL/TLS settings to add the client. Alternatively, you may email the configuration information for your Webmail client to yourself using the *Email Instructions* text box.
