I'm failing to see the whole point in this.  The only difference between
a custom ctrlclnt command and a custom program that uses existing
ctrlclnt commands is one is on the server the other can be remote or on
the server.  The sequence of actions and commands in your disable pop3
example would be identacle.  You still have to list all accounts in a
domain, and then modify each user.tab file independantly, just do it
from one of the many ctrlclnt modules for your favorite scripting or
programming environment.

Ok, what if when the script was registered it needs to define which =
files it
was going to access?  Then the code could add a lock for those files and
=
the
release them with the process exits.

No, each file need locking when accessed. XMail implements a multiple =

single writer locking on every file.
