Cpanel Email per username -Simple extension

This cpanel email extension, allows you to add email@urdomain per username.
The script will use mysql field value to determine wether the user has activated an email or not.
If not active will allow him to set email pass and activate.
If active will allow to directly login to webmail.
demo
http://www.tchatting.com/forum/email.php
Requires login ( "demo demo" pass 123456 ) but you will not be able to create a new email using it anyway thats why i added screenshots here.

Requirements are ofcourse a Cpanel username + no limits on email creation.

The script current features are :
Page only for registered ( No groups set but can be configured via source code )
Replaces Spaces from usernames to . (dot ) since emails cannot contain spaces.
REVISED : also characters such as # @ ~
If you prefer character _ instead of a . for spaces replacements it can be changed on line 92.

The script contains working functions , but not fancy stuff .
You can edit the template to add a faq section or something below logins.

Also it can be extended to allow user to delete his email account or change his email password from the email page but i didnt think its a good idea so i left them out (though can be added )

Finaly , if you have ideas to further extend those functions let me know, id be glad to share if i had more extra time .
Last note : Add a link wherever u want it to appear .


March 8th: Updated the the files, moved the config into includes and added htaccess contents as per Frugil post.
Added intrusctions on how to specify groups.
INSTALLATION

Upload the rest of the files into your forum root

Suppose you don't use CPanel? Is there a way to make this work with VDeck as well?

I just installed this on my vbulletin and it works fine with members that have no spaces or special characters in their username. The problem is that when a user with a space in their username tries to create an account, it attempts to create the username with a space instead of the . (dot) as it should. No account is created but when they go to the /email.php url it shows they have an active email. I checked CPanel and no account was created.

Anyone know how I can fix this?

Yup, I can confirm that the Space in a users name is a problem, it does not use the replace feature you mention, I will try and code this later on tonight if I get a chance as I am not sure I will use this? Or has anyone got this working yet?
