Any inputs are most welcome Regards Lakha If you want to code in PHP 5, I recommend using Matt's PHP 5 class as it makes it much easier to use our APIs. You can find his PHP 5 class at: XMLAPI php class The function for creating an email account is an API1 function. The raw function call as it appears in the X3 theme is:
Code:

<cpanel Email="addpop($FORM{'email'},$FORM{'password'},$FORM{'quota'},$FORM{'doma
4

The first parameter is the portion of the email address before the @ sign (e.g. nobody, if creating nobody@example.com) The second parameter is the password for the mail account The third parameter is the disk quota in megabytes (e.g. 250) The forth parameter is the domain this email address is for (e.g. example.com if creating nobody@example.com). __________________ If you desire technical assistance from our staff, please let our technical analysts take a look at your server for you.

Thanks in advance Editing a username for an email account is not possible in the cPanel interface, so there will be no API equivalent for that. For editing an email account's password, you would use:
Code:

<cpanel Email="passwdpop(email, password, quota, domain)">

email is the portion of the email address before @ password is the new password for the email account. quota is the email quota domain is the portion of the email address after @ __________________ If you desire technical assistance from our staff, please let our technical analysts take a look at your server for you.

Regards You mentioned you submitted a ticket about this and you were referred back to the forums. If this was a ticket directly with cPanel, Inc, can you provide me with your ticket ID so I can follow up with this internally? lvt's post summed up what you need to do. If you need clarification for this even after reviewing the api1 example in the zip file containing the PHP 5
