Hello.
Is it possible to set up a page that when the form is completed, it makes a new email account for use with roundcube?
So on the page it would have somthing like; Name: User name: Password: Password 2: Alternative Email: Terms and Conditions box (with tick box)
Then it makes a new email account and adds the Name to the settings db in roundcube.
Thanks, Jamie
I think this was already considered though.
I don't think it is a good idea and user administration should be separated from a webmail client like Roundcube.
The signup page assumes that you're providing free e-mail addresses which can be abused by any spambot and you're losing control over the number of e-mail addresses you are maintaining.
Another point, is that the majority of the users on this list already have some tool to manipulate the user database (ldap, mysql, postgres) in language that doesn't have to be PHP at all.
Thus you have to make sure the form can post or at least connect to the central userdatabase and update it, which may raise some security issues as well.
There are other more important features missing in Roundcube and a sign up form is not one of them. I'd say just place a link on the login page of Roundcube which points to your form you scripted yourself.
