Topic: Develop custom admin

==== Required information ====
- iRedMail version: 0.8.3
- Store mail accounts in which backend (LDAP/MySQL/PGSQL): MySQL
- Linux/BSD distribution name and version: Ubuntu 12.10/12.04
- Related log if you're reporting an issue:
====

All options available in iRedAdmin-Pro should be available by firing the correct SQL queries, correct?
Is there currently a list of the sql queries that would enable/alter/add a function to the system.

PhpMyAdmin can be used to add remove users/set quotas etc. A complete list would be great.
I had a look at the sample sql schema and I it seems like most is self explanatory.

I would like to develop an administration system based on php instead of python. Such a list would tremendously speedup the development time.

The current open source admin that is freely available and allows modification is written in python and I am a php developer. So I would be spending more time learning a new language instead of using that time to develop an administration panel.

No. And no plan to list them, sorry.

Just curious, why develop one in PHP? just because you don't like or familiar with Python?

Personally, i recommend you purchase our Pro edition ($299 for one-year license, $599 lifetime) if you need features available in Pro edition. Does the time you spend to develop one worth $299 or $599? Will you keep it up to date with iRedMail for your own use?

Anyway, it's fine to develop one by yourself, iRedMail is open source and free. smile

I have developed a custom application (mailing list/CRM) in PHP, and would like to integrate all application related options into 1 admin panel.

Because there are more servers that make use of my CRM application I would need to purchase multiple licenses, by developing my own version this would limit my costs. I would keep the application up to date with future iRedMail versions.
