Selling Sheth.com Email addresses

Posted by Roopesh Sheth  Published in email, sheth.com, Zimbra

When I was at Pooja and Rishi’s wedding a couple of weeks ago, one of my friends mentioned that having the domain sheth.com could be considered valuable. So I decided to test this theory… I’ve setup a completely automated sign-up and setup process for interested parties to buy a sheth.com email address.

For the geek reading this article, this wasn’t very straightforward. I use Zimbra as the email server for sheth.com. Checking to see if a requested email address is available is a relatively easy ldap_search in php. However, it got tricky to automate the creation of Zimbra accounts.  You can learn more about how I did this here.
