Yes, on cPanel 11.24 and later, you can create a CSV file or Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet with the email address, password, quota etc. and then import it using the "Import Addresses/Forwarders" feature in the Mail section of the cPanel interface (x3 theme).

.xls file is working properly but .csv is not working its taking default password & unlimited quota

& one more thing same thing can do this from SSH
& if i want those email ids then what to do ?

Be sure you set your separator character correctly. Different separator characters are supported, not just commas.

& one more thing same thing can do this from SSH

I'm not currently aware of a method of doing this via SSH.

Via the cPanel interface, you can delete 1 email at a time. You can use our APIs to automate this task for deleting many accounts simultaneously if you desire. If you would like me to help you with our APIs, please let me know. Some basic knowledge of programming is required for you to understand how to use our APIs.

You would just use our XML-API to call the API1 function that removes an email address. This API1 function is:

<cpanel Email="delpop[COLOR="RoyalBlue"](email[/COLOR],0,[COLOR="RoyalBlue"]domain[/COLOR])">

Where email is the portion of the email address before @ and domain is the portion of the email address after @. If you use this API call with an @ sign in any of the parameters, you are using it incorrectly.

However, since you are likely calling this function outside the cPanel interface, you will need to use the XML API to call it. Documentation for that is available at:

http://www.cPanel.net/plugins/xmlapi

Specifically, information on calling API1 functions from the XML API is available at:

http://cpanel.net/plugins/xmlapi/cpanel.html

Code samples in various languages on how to use the APIs is available throughout the developers section of these community forums.
