Hi,

I want to migrate many users to my iredmail-driven mail server. I've already discovered the "create_mail_user_OpenLDAP.sh" script. If I get it right it is possible to run this script using several user names to which per choice a default password or the username as password is assigned?
My question is: Is it possible to open a list (csv?) with the script in which usernames and passwords are fixed?
Or each user must change his password individually?

Thanks a lot!

Yours alex42

Thats great! Am I getting it right? The csv has to contain in the first column the domain name, second column the username, third the password? Or the order of columns does not matter?

Do I have to add the groups before using the script?

Thanks in advance!

*) The order of columns MATTERS.
*) You can add the groups with this script. Or, add manually.

Do I have to use a table header or should the entries begin in die first row?
