Like with most hosting plans, mine comes with an abnormally large number of optional e-mail boxes. Since I have the resource, I'm considering offering e-mail to some of my users, but I'd like to find a way to do it more automatically instead of going into the control panel, creating each account and account password one-by-one, and so on. I know there are services that will do this for a fee, and I think they host the e-mail, but I don't think I need that…. at least not yet. Is there a middle ground? Like a script or piece of software that will do this?

Another problem is that there are so many different mail servers out there. A few years ago, everyone used one called 'sendmail'. Now there is 'qmail', and at least some others. And all these different control panel systems like to set up the mail servers differently, and it is liable to change from one version to the next.
