PHP and Qmail (password change(

bilbo2

Hi,

I've got a webhotel with access to create Qmail accounts, very nice. However I want to let my users be able to change their password through a webinterface created in PHP. Is it possible to with PHP to change the password of a user in Qmail?

Some sample code would be nice.

Cheers

Do you know how Qmail stored the passwords? In a database? Flat File? Internal hash table? Are they encrypted? You need to figure all of this out before you can even ponder on how to manipulate them

Look here. Looks like there's already solutions for you

Is there any sources available for PHP?

Yes, they are listed on that page

Yikes 😉

Seems a little too hard to implement to me 🙁
Isn't there any functions/classes available on the net to do this easier?

Google it. This isn't the most common program used for mail....

I've tried, but can't seem to find anything that fits the thing I want (to change the password of an POP3 account).

Can you find anything else?
