Is there a way to mass edit/delete user accounts when you don't have filesystem or sql access?

The closest I could find was https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=99509&highlight=awaiting

But I can't upload files to the server and sql access is disabled.

I would like to prune the 'users awaiting email confirmation' group based on age. Is there a simple way of doing this?

can you run a query in the admin cp?

no.. sql through the admin cp is disabled. Of course if I could run a direct query it would be easy :)

Suprised in all the mods for both 3.5 and .6 I didn't find any that were for this.. except to automatically mail and disable accounts.

you can accomplish this via default AdminCP options. move the unactivated users into a new usergroup, then delete all the users within that usergroup.

But is there no way to make this an automated process? I agree, I would like to be able to delete unopened accounts after, like, 30 days or something, automatically. I go through mine periodically and clean it out, but that's a time-consuming pain to do manually.
