Is it possible to...

kcuf.us · June 17th, 2003, 3:22 PM

offer a free webmail service to whomever signs up at my website? The only way I know how to setup email accounts is through cpanel, but I'm running phpnuke6.5 right now and I was wondering if there were a way for the script itself to setup email accounts on my domain when people register? I'm at school right now and I'm about to leave the lab but even without using phpnuke, is there anyway for users to be able to have an account at my domain through scripts and not by me accessing cpanel each time? I'm part of a student association and we might use my website as a way to keep everyone up to date, and providing email's to our members would be an added incentive.

Can I install that script myself? (If so, how?) Otherwise, how much would Surpass charge for installing it?

Okay, I'm configuring this script, and I need some help with the config.php file (lines in question are in bold)...

Quote:

<?
//before this will work you will need to make a mysql user in cpanel and then run setup.php
//if you need any help email me at supportwarwithboredom.com
//also once you have made the table you Must add any email addresses that you already have
//to the data base using the reserve option otherwise this script can overwrite mailboxes

$host = "www.(domain).com";//your url
$domain = "(domain).com";//your domain without the www

//Cpanel options:
$cpaneluser = "(login)";//your cpanel username
$cpanelpass = "(password)";//your cpanel password
$cpaneltheme= "bluelagoon"; //this is the word after frontend/ and the next / when you login to cpanel*

//Database options:
$dbhost="localhost"; //Usually localhost
$dbuser="(login)";//mysql username
$dbpass="(password)";//mysql password

$dbname="(dbname)";//The name of the database for mail
$dbusertbl="mailusers";//Name of the table for users
$dbadmintbl="mailadmin";//name of the table for admin

$quota=50000;//how much space in k you want to give the user**
$mailurl="mail/index.php";***//The url for your web based mail program I use http://uebimiau.sourceforge.net but you can use anything
//see http://www.hotscripts.com/PHP/Scripts_and_...s/Email_Systems

//End of settings! you should not need to change anything below this

?>

* What is the cPanel X theme called? "Default"?

** Just wanted to double-check... 50MB = 50000K?

*** What would the path to Horde or NeoMail be?

Thanks in advance,
Lawrence
