[The Hub] Restrict Pro Mail Access for Team Members

0

Currently, when I assign a team member access to the Pro Mail tab, they can see all existing mailboxes, not just the ones related to the websites they manage. This is inconsistent with how team access works for websites — team members can only access the sites they are assigned to, which is great.

Team members should only see and manage mailboxes for the websites they have access to.

They should not have visibility into or access to mailboxes of other team members or unrelated sites.

This would significantly improve privacy, security — especially when managing multiple client projects or internal teams.

Thanks for considering this. It would be a very welcome enhancement!

    Hey Dirk-Jan !

    Members are normally for your working team. You should assign a Client to the e-mail accounts so each client will only see its mail account(s). You can also define the Default Role for Clients to limit even more what clients can see and do.

    I hope this helps you out. The setup is a bit tricky at start, but after you understand the ‘flow’ of the system, it gets easy and fast to set anything at The Hub. I also have some suggestions/feature requests on the Email system, will follow soon.

    Cheers!

    Hi Dirk-Jan

    Hope you are doing well today.

    The Pro email service is completely separate from hosting and domain services. It is an independent feature that can be used without a hosting plan or even a registered domain with us.

    When you grant team members access to Pro emails, they will be able to view all email addresses. As Fabio mentioned, the best solution for redirects is to create a custom role for clients and add the team member as a client using your custom role. You can read this document to learn more about custom roles.

    I will bring your request to our HUB’s attention for review and consideration, but I can’t give any ETAs or promises regarding its implementation.

    Best Regards
    Amin
