Ports 2095 & 2096 are blocked where from where I need to use LP webmail. Until recently I was able to login in using the format http://mail.mydomain.com

but as of today instead of taking me to a login screen, it shows me a generic screen of:

---------------------------
Great Success !
Apache is working on your cPanel® and WHM™ Server
If you can see this page, then the people who manage this server have installed cPanel and WebHost Manager (WHM) which use the Apache Web server...
---------------------------

This format also takes me to the generic Apache page:
http://webmail.SERVER.lunarpages.com    [I'm on delta]


Note that the "http://yourdomain.com/webmail/" format doesn't work because the URL immediately forwards itself to a ":2095" format after connecting and that's blocked.

I need working webmail, with LP or elsewhere...

I too have just been affected by this.  What happened Lunarpages?

I am afraid you would need to put in a ticket for this type of issue.  Please contact support@lunarpages.com and I am sure they would be happy to look into things for you.  Thanks!

While this is being investigated, here are a couple of workarounds.

http://www.mail2web.com/ should be able to work to access it via web

or setting up a cpanel proxy https://support.lunarpages.com/knowledge_bases/article/226

Although LP support initially suggested workarounds that didn't work (same behavior), recommended the use of other email clients (also wouldn't work for various reasons) and just said "you can't access webmail except on ports 2095/2096"), after I pushed back they looked harder. They managed to make a "small cpanel change" that now allows the use of webmail on port 80 at:

http://webmail.SERVER.lunarpages.com    [I'm on delta]

I haven't investigated the use of the cpanel proxy to allow the use of webmail.yourdomain.com as suggested in the knowledgebase article, as the link is working OK for me.
