liamoco Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 For my website, when each user registers I would like them to have there own email address, but how can I create an email address for them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liamoco Posted January 1, 2011 Author Share Posted January 1, 2011 I've googled everything I could think of but I'm having no luck at all with this, usually I manually create an email in the control panel which the hosts provide but can this be done with PHP?

trq Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 This can be done but its not as simple as one might think. You need to know what mail server your using and how exactly it is configured (does it use virtual mail boxes stored within a database?) The first thing I would do is ask your host if this is possible. It is likely (if your on a shared host) that you hosting provider will not give you access to such a database and if that is the case you will need to write a script that will actually do this through your control panel (this will not be pretty). If you have decent hosting you should be able to do this directly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
