I am curious

How I can provide a webmail login front of website allows users to login in thier website?

Can I put in a directory, when a domain is created, I want that thing copied in thier www directory so they can use it to login in webmail instead using the crappy long cpanel mail url and it sucks

Any help is appericated

These wont work, only the default

See, thats too much work

CPanel should had build a HTML login form somewhere

For example, http://webmail.domain.com so a user can login into that email login of thier own..

Makes it easier for my clients

?

whats the difference.. webmail.domain.com or www.domain.com/webmail/ - You can make a sub domain redirect to what you need.. if thats what you wanted

webmail.domain.com forward to www.domain.com:2095

I don't really follow.. maybe :)

I mean ...

if you have say 5 POP3 email, and you use the webmail url and you provide that info on the popup window, it doesnt work for any these, only default,

I mean have a login screen on the page and it works for all pop3 accounts for that domain

Ya know?

Yes jose4php.. I know :)

OK..

User1 is the default catch all .. accounts (user2, user3) after that are added pop accounts that are created.

Go to:

http://domain.com/webmail/

Login: user1
Password: xxxxxx

Accesses default catch all email account / webmail

OK

http://www.domain.com/webmail/

Login: user2@domain.com
Password: xxxxxx

Accesses the added pop account for user2

http://www.domain.com/webmail/

Login: user3@domain.com
Password: xxxxxxx

accesses user3's pop account / webmail

and so on... Hope that is clearer :)

What if I just want a webmail login page instead like these, its confusing for my clients

Its exactly the same as setting their email accounts up within their email client.. I can't see it being confusing for that reason.

You can create a custom form for sure, just create one and include it within your skeleton directory, so it is loaded onto your clients sites when you create their account. How you do that depends upon what you want it to do exactly.. and how much control you have over the server. Do you have a reseller account or do you have a dedicated machine?
