Clients are asking to have a feature in usermin so they can create their own e-mail accounts. I haven't found this option. Any hints?

There was a question back some time ago, about what we'd like to see, where we'd like to go with Webmin. As a hosting provider, the things that are 'constant' from our customers are mostly mail related. Address changes, add a box / remove a box, mail forwarding, autoresponders and an interface for reading mail or deleting mail when Outlook hangs on those corrupted emails. Usermin is very close to filling this need (most of the tools are there but it's just too geeky). If it could tie in with Virtualmin with regards to the number of allowed email accounts, add remove mailboxes/aliases... quotas and such.... that would be great. The problem is the terminology is way over the heads of or totally confusing to our 'average user'. I would greatly like to see a 'simpleminded' dumb'User'min. As a provider, we could turn off many of the more advanced modules, which are an invitation to mess something up for most of our people. I will volunteer myself and my partner to make suggestions with regards to the interface should you wish to consider this proposal. This would provide a solution to the biggest support issue we deal with. Best, John Hinton |

I do not want to design this module. But there is a way to do it with = webmin and virtualmin. Another option is squirrelmail. Have them stop using = usermin and move them toward squirrelmail there are virtual words and scripts = that can do what you are asking for. ------------------------------------------ Vernon J.

If such a feature exists, it would have to be in Webmin rather than Usermin.. theoretically, a module could be created that allows a user to create an account, and then you could grant anonymous access to this module. However, no such module exists yet :-) It would make an interesting plugin to Virtualmin though.. - Jamie > > > |

To follow up on tbis, I went ahead and created a plugin for Virtualmin that allows users to create their own mailbox accounts in domains for which it is enabled. You can get it from : http://www.webmin.com/download/plugins/virtualmin-signup.wbm.gz After installing and enabling it in at least one virtual server, go to http://thedomain.com:10000/virtualmin-signup/ to create an accout. If you have the Authen::Captcha Perl module installed, it has a configurable option to use a CAPTCHA image to prevent mass account creation by bots.. - Jamie |
