    Question The NEW cPanel 5 mail system

    I have long ago disabled the auto update in the WHM.

    Does anyone know how the NEW cPanel 5 mail system is working out?

    What is the upside of the upgrade?

    I hope and pray that Nick has tested this one better than he did the web mail mess he put us through!

    It's supposed to allow for addon domains to have mail options.

    I know of one feature which is mail support for addon domains. Probably a few bug fixes thrown in, and im not sure of what other features have been added. No problems to report yet.

    cPanel 5 Prep The cPanel 5 mail system is almost ready to be shipped. This new system will allow pop accounts for addon and parked domains as well as webmail for the addon and parked domains. The conversion from cPanel 4 mail to cPanel 5 mail requires that the system "link" function work for each user. Some systems have grsecurity and/or other security software that may prevent this system function from working properly. Sysadmins are advised to ensure that normal users can create a hard link to a file that they own before upgrading to cPanel 5. If your system has a broken "link" function, you will not be able to take advantage of this upgrade.

    Thats all? aww big deal

    i thought it was a big deal.....allows for addon domains to get a little closer to being true multiple domain hosting...

    LOL

    But i guess add on domains should have more features than just being able to add e-mail accounts for them

    Quick question here.....

    What is the difference between an Addon and Parked Domain?

    Is this a paper or plastic thing?

    addon domains let you do:

    domain2.com goes to subsite.domain1.com

    and parked domains .com do:
    domain2.com goes to domain1.com

    I am not sure I want my customers using addon domains.

    Seems like that is cutting in to the profits!

    Sure, version 5.0, expected late September, will allow for addon and parked domains to have pop accounts, but it's really just a lil .htaccess trick, simplified.

    Version 7.0, coming out mid 2003 is expected to offer teleportation solutions, quadriple your bank account revenues, and determine who gets into heaven.

    The option is there ( which is easy enough removed ), but you can't actually add anything to it, unless it is specified for the plan / package. If a customer asks, just tell them its an extra feature and it costs $$$. Its far from the end of the world.
