Create multiple email accounts Plesk 8

After much hunting around and reading through the Plesk Administrator Guide I finally found an easy way for creating multiple e-mail accounts in batch!  This is not a MySQL hook or database related, but stems from the logic of wanting to create multiple accounts at once.

To create an e-mail account in Plesk, first login to your server via SSH.

Execute the following:

/usr/local/psa/bin/mail --create new@yourdomain.com -passwd newpassword-cp-access false

If you want to run a batch, create a script:

8

#/bin/bash

/usr/local/psa/bin/mail --create new@yourdomain.com -passwd newpassword-cp-access false

/usr/local/psa/bin/mail --create new@yourdomain.com -passwd newpassword-cp-access false

/usr/local/psa/bin/mail --create new@yourdomain.com -passwd newpassword-cp-access false

/usr/local/psa/bin/mail --create new@yourdomain.com -passwd newpassword-cp-access false
