I would to modify for my friend this module so if user registered into Drupal, your module would directly create its account on the server (for IMAP) so the user wouldn't have to set up these information for IMAP (user, password and server). Everything would be ready for everybody for one particular domain that I have filled in.

Do you think it is possible? Any suggestions will be appriciated.
Thank you in advance.

The CPanel module should take care of creating the accounts for you as long as your host uses CPanel, but yes it would be nice to have settings auto-filled in a non-user-accessible way. I have no interest in allowing users to check OTHER webmail, just the webmail from my site.

Hello,

as far as a i know - creating a user account isn't an task for the
IMAP-Protocol or the Mail User Agent (MUA) itself. Roundcube is a way of
MUA.

The creation of an user account is more a task handled by the tools
delivered by the IMAP-server, and it is an task on the 'OS-layer', not
the IMAP Protocol.

So if you think about those function (autocreate IMAP Mailboxes) it has
to be done specifically for the IMAP-server witch is in use. The should
be some control functions an security policies. Furthermore you meet the
circumstance, that the IMAP-Server isn't on the same machine where your
web server is runnung.

But ... it should not impossible to handle that. (Maybe impossible if
the machine is running windows ;)

But i would like to treat this as a business case, because i do not require such as function yet and don't want to spent my free time on this.
Feel free to contact me :)

best regards

stefan
