Nice post!

I think you can do all this without even using PHP. iMacros can read from CSV files directly. So in your macro just use

CMDLINE !DATASOURCE Address.csv
‘Number of columns in the CSV file. This must be accurate!
SET !DATASOURCE_COLUMNS 1
‘Start at line 2 to skip the header in the file
SET !LOOP 2

And then use {{!COL1}} for your emails:
TAG POS=1 TYPE=… CONTENT={{!COL1}}

I got this idea from http://wiki.imacros.net/Demo-Loop-Csv-2-Web

You can avoid the possibility of the code being obsoleted by a new GUI by accessing the APIs directly. You can use our XML-API to call the appropriate API1/API2 functions that handle the actual creation of mail accounts. If you have root access, all you have to do is analyze the code of the X3 theme to see what APIs it calls and use those calls yourself.

The X3 theme is located at /usr/local/cpanel/base/frontend/x3

The paths for individual screens is fairly simple as it is merely a series of special web pages. For example, frontend/x3/mail/pops.html would be located at /usr/local/cpanel/base/frontend/x3/mail/pops.html – though all that particular page does is pass parameters to another page to be processed. The code is fairly simple and easy to sort though.

We are currently working on comprehensive API documentation so you wont need to look at the X3 source code to determine which API calls you need to use. However, you can find our current documentation on our website at:

Awesome comments Guys! Thanks for your response and for the ideas!

Thanks.. something we were looking for..It would certainly take some time as it is a macro.. but there will be atleast no pain ..\

Hey,

I just tried your script but whenever I run it says:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘,’ in /home/gktsmec/public_html/rep.php on line 2

The first line with $text

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Sounds like you might be trying to enter php into the iMacros editor. You’ll need to run the php from the command line or through a php enabled web server. If you don’t know anything about PHP, then this method probably isn’t for you.
