    Make sure that your subscription plan has a number greater than 0.  This will enable the mail service

    At first I diddn't understand what @Marcos ment, but he was in fact totally right!

    If you set email accounts to 0 in your service plan, there won't be a email tab in subscriptions and domains. Even if mail service is enabled on that domain...
