Cpanel Email address creation at registration

[apt]

Hi Joomla Commumity

I'm in the process of seting up a community website for my local village and part of the hosting for the site includes unlimited email addresses from our domain.  As part of the registration process I'm wanting to offer new users a FREE email address based on our domain.  I've discovered the excellent mod_cpanelbeta which allows users to create an CPANEL email address once registered but I'd like to be able to offer an option at registration to create an email address based on the users preferred username and password.

I'm almost sure I could combine the login/register component and the code from the mod_cpanelbeta to create a custom login/registration component but my PHP is not great and I'm not sure where to start.

Can someone out there with a bit more knowledge point me in the right direction or give me a hand.

Many Thanks

Hey apt.  Did you ever figure out how to modify joomla's registration?  I would like to help out if I can.  I am trying to do this as well.  I have been searching on a solution to this for days.  Let me know of your progress.

Thanks,
Brandon

Has anyone done this for J 1.5? I would like to have the option for users to create an Cpanel email address upon registration.

I have spent the better half of a month trying to figure this out. I cant believe something that seems simple enough is hard to integrate into a viable function! I have discovered how to sign up via a url, but as to a module or component. Nothing. Zip Zero Zilch

By the way, for those who are interested, the url form is the following

https://"DOMAINNAME":2082/frontend/x/mail/doaddpop.html?email="DESIRED E-MAIL"&domain="DOMAINNAME"&password="CPANEL PASSWORD"&quota=250.

I did this for J1.0. using the Plesk API and a Community Builder plug in.

Upon registration, I stored the users name in a separate table. I then had a cron job (that ran under root) that would periodically read that table and call the plesk API to create the email account. It also created white/black lists for the users based on other parameters.

Something similar would probably work for J!1.5.

i found this script for cpanel - maybe it could be modified to work with joomla registration form?
