Mass-edit cpanel contacts

[Xavior82]

There doesn't seem to be a WHM tool to mass-edit cpanel accounts' contact email, so I was wondering if there was a database that WHM used to store these, so that I can insert the changes directly into the database. I have roughly 1200 accounts to change and would rather not edit them manually one by one via the modify account page.

Thanks in advance!

Cpanel stores contact email address for each account name in /home/<username>/.contactemail

Just edit the file, and change the email address there. If you wish to change the contact email address for all your accounts, you can try executing:

[email protected][~]$ for i in `cut -f2 -d' ' /etc/trueuserdomains|sort`
> do
> echo '[email protected]' > /home/${i}/.contactemail 2> /dev/null
> chown ${i}.${i} /home/${i}/.contactemail
> done
