I have started a web app to create and delete users and change passwords:

http://github.com/emacadie/James-Admin-Web-App

Here is a passage from the app's wiki:

The goal of this application is to make a web application to simplify the adminstration of the Apache James mail server.

Many people on the list have complained that managing James can be cumbersome. Some people use the Remote Manager. The Remote Manager is a server running within James. You must telnet into it and enter commands by hand. Many people prefer using the database to store messages and user info. However, there are no tools to manage the database aside from logging into the database.

This web app allows you to add, change and delete users and delete messages in the deadletter table.

I also have a few pages on installing and managing James on my website:

yes you can. James support any a DB or a file as a repository for user list.
Its configured under SAR-INF/config.xml (james-2.3.2) under<users-store>
tag. Default is to use the UsersFileRepository. You can use the same to
create a web-based UI for users management , following is the api:

What is the interface that helps to manage the user account like creating
user(as I created testuser) and  password or any thing else user
management
feature?
or Is this I will have to do via telnet?

Thanks
