I've had my Rodopi billing server setting up accounts on my Imail machine
remotely for several years. You can either use program aliases (I did this
for a while) or quite a few people simply open up a directly via FTP - have
your billing/account creation machine ftp the needed data to that
directory - and a small script checks the directory every n seconds running
a simple script based on data in the uploaded file (I'm using this now). I
think I PCAnywhered into the mail server a couple o' months ago to check
something in the admin console, but it looks like they've even fixed that in
ver 7.

Hi Scott,
I'm simply being sarcastic. IPSwitch is raising the licensing
prices for the Unlimited version (Which 99.99% of the time is used for
ISPs), yet leaves us no way of remotely configuring the IMail servers
*automatically* (Via command line scripts). The remote administration
is great and all, but it's ridiculous to login and add new clients
manually one at a time.
Or ETRN support, there is no way for us to secure our SMTP
server while supporting ETRN. It will reject all ETRN traffic, clearly
ETRN was not thought out well.
Or POP before SMTP, nearly every mail product out there has it.
Or Full database support for user management.
Or .... many many more things we've been asking (begging) for
since v3.

I certainly wouldn't call it a bug fix release.
There are also quite a few small changes that aren't immediately
noticeable, but very useful. Just as an example, in web messaging you
can
now just click on a link to display the headers. That way, you don't
have
to see the headers everytime you read an E-mail (which would be a
nuisance), but have very easy access to them when you need them. Those
small details do add up.
