Email Systems.....

Where could I get ahold of an email script that will allow my userse to CREATE accounts? I have only been able to find stmp or pop scripts that login to already made accounts. Im trying to offer new features to my users and with alot of "free" email places changing there services, I thought it would be a great step for my site as well.

to rephrase the question if my rambling on confused you.

Where can I get an email script that will allow people who come to my website to create accounts and instantly be able to use there email?

This is more complicated that you think. The easiest way to do this is to create a script that creates a user account on the machine. This however has security problems as you have to be root (or admin or whatever under Windoz). The best way to do this would be create a user with no shell, so he cant login, and have cron indirectly run some script to create the user. This still isnt perfect. Another way to do this would be to create virtual users of some sort. You could setup an entire backend. I have tried something like this using procmail and Postfix mailserver. It wasnt perfect but it worked. I have heard of ppl doing the same thing with qmail, but never tried it myself.

Hope this Helps! (some)
