Ok, I'll admit that there are a few grammatical issues in this one -- =
let me
try again :)
Suggestion: =20
Add a command plug-in concept to the ctrl protocol
Explanation:
Currently the control protocol supports a list of commands that you
have created. My suggestion would allow us to create custom commands, =
or
use a single command to execute custom scripts. For example, say I =
wanted
to be able to disable pop3 access to all accounts on a specific domain.
Currently, I would need to get each user.tab file for each user in the
domain, edit the tab file and the place it back up on the server. Or I
could create a script that would respond to a custom command (ex:
alterpop3accesss), that you take a series of parameters. Then I could
execute a ctrclnt request from anywhere (web front-end, command line, =
etc)
and execute the "alterpop3accesss [EMAIL PROTECTED] disable". The CTRL =
server
would then look for the script that goes with the "alterpop3accesss" =
command
and execute it. =20
Benefits:
The key benefit would be that it would allow us, the community, to
enhance the remote management features of XMail without having to bug =
you
for lots of little changes that only a few want :) An additional =
benefit is
that anyone can publish this scripts so that others can use them if they
have need.
Does that help?

Either there's some serious grammatical issue here or my English in =
