Users

Add a mail user

Add an email address to this system. This will create a new login username/password.

Passwords must be at least eight characters consisting of English letters and numbers only. For best results, generate a random password.
Use aliases to create email addresses that forward to existing accounts.
Administrators get access to this control panel.
User accounts cannot contain any international (non-ASCII) characters, but aliases can.
Quotas may not contain any spaces, commas or decimal points. Suffixes of G (gigabytes) and M (megabytes) are allowed. For unlimited storage enter 0 (zero)

Mail user API (advanced)

Use your box’s mail user API to add/change/remove users from the command-line or custom services you build.

Usage:

curl -X VERB [-d "parameters"] --user {email}:{password} https://{{hostname}}/admin/mail/users[action]

Brackets denote an optional argument. Please note that the POST body parameters must be URL-encoded.

The email and password given to the --user option must be an administrative user on this system.
