Subject: [xmail] Re: A Question...



True, but I picked the example that I gave because it was simple to =3D
outline
:) Here are a couple of other uses:

- A new userstats that returns info like
        - last login
        - last client domain name (RDNS lookup)

R> These should be able to be run server side, if I remember correctly a
file is created in the user mailbox with the needed info on POP3, use
cfgfileget

        - total amount of spam the user received today=3D20

R> changes depending on the spam software so it couldn't be universal,
but if you can make your sw increment a counter in the MailRoot and use
cfgfileget

- a server stats
        - total logins
        - startup time
        - current memory usage
        - etc.
R> These would require api from XMail

- alter the startup parameters
- restart xmail to pickup changes
- etc.

R> These you can do through many other means, if you are running a web
based admin package, run it on your XMail server and add scripts to =
modify
the startup or run a restart batch or script

Basically, the reason for the request to so that more complete remote =
=3D
manage application can be written :)  It would be great is the ctrl =
protocol
=3D could grow so that a complete xmail environment could be managed =
(spam,
xmail server startup parameters, other external tools, etc). All of the
ideas =3D that I have are things that cannot be done using the existing =
ctrl
protocol.
