Subject: [e-smith-devinfo] Accounts question


I'm working on a maintenance type script for my SME box and have hit a 
couple of hurdles.  I'm sure each are quite easily answered.

1.  Is there a way to determine the mail server name from the command 
line (e.g.  mail.mydomainname.com)?

2.  What is the correct method for creating a new account from the 
command line so that it fit's into the SME model?

3.  Is it possible for a script running as root to access an account 
password for a given user?

Thank you.
