Topic:
Linux;Email Servers;Email Software
I got one email account, support@mysite.com , that was created
in Cpanel, now my cpanel is expired and I had no longer to use it
Now today I need to find a new way to create two more email accounts.
But I don't know how to do it . And I am using Squirrel Mail web tool
that can Not be used for creating email account.
Now my old email account is at /home/mylogin/mai/mysite/support
I tried to make the addtional email account, for example, adm@mysite.cm
by copy the folder of support to new folder of adm,
but sendmail comand could not vierfy adm@mysite.com as email account
Do you know there is some free mail tool for creating many email account
with the same domain site without Cpanel Help ? Or you have method
to do it on linux shell command
Please advise
Duncan

Sorry you still have to use cPanel, but I'm glad I was able to help you add users again.
It might be best if you get a new server at some point, migrate everything over, and then shut off the old server.

At this moment, I may leave Cpanel on my linux since
my issue is fixed on linux shell even it is at cpanel script perl directory
, and if uninstall it I don't know what will happen, and I can not affort the risk
to reinstall Linux, re-format my hard-disk or uninstall Cpanel since my database
on existing server is big except I buy new server.

If you were to uninstall cPanel or reformat the server and start over with a fresh copy of CentOS, then any users that you add with adduser would receive mail and pass the sendmail -bv test right away.
cPanel has removed this ability on your system - it modified the mail service to where any mail received by Exim looks in /home/<yourusername>/mail<domain name> instead of in /etc/passwd. If you were to convert your system back to using sendmail or postfix, then all the users that you added with adduser will get mail in /var/spool/mail, and all the users created in cPanel will no longer receive their mail in /home/<yourusername>/mail<domain name>
You cannot have them both working at the same time, because there is only one port 25 on the system which is where mail comes in.

with help from Cpanel, we can add many email address at the same doman,
for example, adm@mysite.com adm2@mysite.com...etc by following perl script
at /usr/local/cpanel/scripts/addpop and new email account folder
is created at /home/mylogin/mail/mysite.com/adm or adm2
Now I can add many email account as I want but still using Cpanel
But if users are no cpanel used before, how linux users can handle such thing
Or sendmail or postix command will help to create many email address
for the same domain name such as mysite.com.
Please advise

@kerick
He's using cPanel which modifies Exim to use virtual passwd/shadow files instead of the central Unix passwd/shadow file to house mail accounts.
@Duncan
I believe I mentioned this in another question, but have you just tried:
/usr/local/cpanel/scripts/createacct mysite.com newuser newpassword
This is the syntax as reported by the script:
root@host [~]# /usr/local/cpanel/scripts/createacct
Please use the following syntax:
wwwacct <domain> <user> <pass> <quota> <cpmod[advanced/?]> <ip[y/n]> <cgi[y/n]> <frontpage[y/n]> <maxftp> <maxsql> <maxpop> <maxlst> <maxsub> <bwlimit> <hasshell[y]/[n]> <owner> <plan> <maxpark> <maxaddon> <featurelist> <contactemail> <use_registered_nameservers> <language>

but it is just going to
/var/spool/mail for newuser name
and I can find newuser name /home/newuser after adduser newuser
But I could not find anything at
/home/mylogin/mail/mysite.com/newusers folder as support
and be reminded support is not user but he also got support@mysite.com email address, why ?
sendmail -bv command could not verify it newuser@mysite.com as email account.
it output " failed to verify: No Such User Here"
now my mail folder is
at /home/mylogin/mail/mysite.com/ that is set by Cpanel before
I am using Exim as mail server

You should be able to just create users from command line
Example:
# adduser joe
# passwd joe
follow any prompts
This would be if your server is the said domain.
