Overview

This interface allows you to edit feature lists, which you can assign to packages that you apply to cPanel accounts. Feature lists provide or prevent access to specific cPanel features.

Predefined feature lists

cPanel & WHM includes the default, disabled, and Mail Only feature lists. These predefined feature lists determine which features are automatically assigned to new or existing feature lists.

default

The system grants cPanel users access to the default feature list’s selected features by default. If you disable a feature in this feature list, the system disables that feature by default for all users using the default feature list. To override this configuration, create a new list and assign it to your cPanel users.

Mail only

The Mail Only feature list provides cPanel users access to only mail-related features, such as Email Archiving or Apache SpamAssassin™. If you are a reseller who only owns a mail server, use this feature list.

disabled

The disabled feature list serves as a list of features unavailable to all users and feature lists on your server. This feature list will also override any settings changed in other feature lists assigned to users.
