   Do the dedicated servers have the same configuration in cPanel for creating email boxes?

   Because our dedicated server (CentOS 6.7 with Exim and Dovecot) does not show these options in its “Mail” section, only these:

   Greylisting
   Mail Delivery Reports
   Mail Queue Manager
   Mail Troubleshooter
   Repair Mailbox Permissions
   Spamd Startup Configuration
   View Mail Statistics Summary
   View Relayers
   View Sent Summary

   Thanks in advance.
