Email sign up form




Posted by betacorp, 08-23-2011, 06:53 AM
Hi, I'm looking to make a thing where people can sign up and get a free email address. I was wandering how I can have a simple page that can enable a user to create a new postfix or qmail account from a webpage. Any mail server will do, as I can set up a new server. Any help would be great! Thanks, Sam

You basically would write a perl or php script which execute a system call to create the account on the server. Just a tip, I would put A LOT of security measures into a website like this because one people find it and it will be abused a lot. Don't forget to put OUTGOING spam measuring tools such as spamguard onto the server as well.

use POST method on your scripting page which will let you know your own errors.

If your creating something like this be sure to put high security measures into it and i say this because a lot of people will like to abuse this and spam using your email features.
