How do I create email accounts & clients automatically

[patchshorts]

Hello,
Similar to plesks command line utilities to create domains and email accounts, I need a way create email domains & accounts automatically in ISPConfig 3. In order for customers to manage their passwords and such, I imagine that these email domains would each need their own client. This is where it gets hairy, because i can create an email domain in the db, however with clients, system users are created so I need to do this without messing up the database. I was hoping to find an api I could interface with. Any ideas?

You can do this with the ispconfig remoting API. You will find some example in the remote_client directory of the ispconfig tar.gz. You should use the new ispconfig 3.0.2 for this, as the api has been improved from 3.0.1.6.
