Create email account with php

Post by prime »

I run a small website with a few friends and they want emails with it. It's kind of shady to ask them what they want their password to be. Is there a way to make a form to create an email account similar to within the CP?

I know this is possible in cPanel, so I wanna know it NFO implemented a way to.

Thank you!

Make a temp password and have them change it to whatever. Are you on NFOs shared hosting? Do you want to host with them or 3rd party?

I'm using rainloop for email, but I'd be willing to switch to webmail if needed. I'm using shared hosting. Standard plan.

I'd recommend giving each of your users a default, randomly generated password, and then having them change the password through the tool in our webmail system. They don't have to use the webmail apart from that, if they don't want to.
