Darrell: You can do it if you use external database instead of IMail LDAP.
What I do is I use a simple web form to set up the account. It does three things: 1. Validates the form using Javascript to ensure password meets requirements 2. Adds user account in Window 2K or Windows 2k3 Active Directory (LDAP directory) 3. Adds user to IMail external user database That way email accounts and domain accounts are all set up at one time thru web browser form.. You can have it so user sets up own account or restrict it to administrator for set up. Password complexity enforced thru form validation on client side. This sytem also makes it easy to delete or lock out users if necessary, and to send bulk e-mails to groups of users, as the external database can be set up with additional non IMail fields for whatever purpose you need.
