Hey Thanks Barry, Yeah, I want to be able to creat email accounts automatically, when people get themselves registered on the website, this should be done automatically, you are right about the temp email id, that would change and the email IDs generated would be permanent, which would be deleted after couple of months. So basically, what I am looking at is, a way to be able to create email IDs on a Linux server, when people post comments, how can this be done? Thanks, Vinay Kannan.
