If you want to code in PHP 5, I recommend using Matt's PHP 5 class as it makes it much easier to use our APIs. You can find his PHP 5 class at:

http://forums.cpanel.net/f42/xmlapi-php-class-111897.html

The function for creating an email account is an API1 function. The raw function call as it appears in the X3 theme is:

Code:
<cpanel Email="addpop($FORM{'email'},$FORM{'password'},$FORM{'quota'},$FORM{'domain'})">
The first parameter is the portion of the email address before the @ sign (e.g. nobody, if creating [email protected])

The second parameter is the password for the mail account

The third parameter is the disk quota in megabytes (e.g. 250)

The forth parameter is the domain this email address is for (e.g. example.com if creating [email protected]).

Editing a username for an email account is not possible in the cPanel interface, so there will be no API equivalent for that.

For editing an email account's password, you would use:

Code:
<cpanel Email="passwdpop(email, password, quota, domain)">
email is the portion of the email address before @

password is the new password for the email account.

quota is the email quota

domain is the portion of the email address after @

I'm not familiar with the PHP class provided here but I guess that you will need something like :

<?php
$xmlapi->api1_query($account, "Email", "passwdpop", array($email, $password, $quota, $domain) );
?>

You mentioned you submitted a ticket about this and you were referred back to the forums. If this was a ticket directly with cPanel, Inc, can you provide me with your ticket ID so I can follow up with this internally?

lvt's post summed up what you need to do. If you need clarification for this even after reviewing the api1 example in the zip file containing the PHP 5 class, please let me know.

What should I ask from my provider to do this?
There may not be anything specific other than ensuring you can login using your account username and password; if you can login then you should be able to attempt to access the XML-API as was previously mentioned. It couldn't hurt to try asking the service provider for assistance connecting to their system via the XML-API; they may be able to help check logs for troubleshooting and also verify the login works.

If what you're seeking to do is similar or the same as the original poster, then you might include a link to this forums thread, or if it is different you might start a new thread to ask in more detail about what you're looking to accomplish.

Here is our related developer documentation for additional reference material:
