Not sure what your asking,

If you want to create a mail id, all host sites have
their own tools in order to create an email id such as :

me@site.com,
you@site.com,
us@site.com,
them@site.com,
etc@site.com

Try and be more specific.

You can do re-directs easily to other accounts (as in, send mail to abc@your-host.tld to foobar@hotmail.com). That's just aliasing... Exim supports external aliases, some MTAs will not support it without some extra configuration/filtering.

What mail transfer agent do your host use? You can usually work this out by telnetting to the SMTP service on port 25 and seeing who the greeting comes from: e.g.

Code: Select all

w3style:/Users/d11wtq root# telnet smtp.swiftmailer.org 25
Trying 217.147.94.117...
Connected to smtp.swiftmailer.org.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 localhost.localdomain ESMTP Exim 4.50 Sat, 06 Jan 2007 13:49:58 +0000
So that's exim running on smtp.swiftmailer.org.

Do you mean you want to create a POP account on a server from a PHP script? For example if I signed up for an e-mail account though a website it would create myChooseEmail@mydomain.com?
