    Would be nice if there was a box to check when creating a user that would also generate an email account for that user. Wuold save a lot of time and extra steps.

    It's not that simple.. as Cloudron users are separate from any domains.

    That is why there is a process to add domains, enable email services, which is a mapping of email subsystems to the domain.

    Then there is another mapping of email accounts to email services, which also map to a cloudron user.

    While some automation can be done, there are many assumptions and successful setup things required before things can actually work as you'd expect.

    What may be more helpful is for you to suggest what end resulting flow you'd like from the existing steps as required, being careful with assumptions that only apply to your use case (which may only be a single domain setup).

    This feature would actually be pretty helpful.

    Even if it was as simple as asking if we wanted to create an email for the user, then ask which domain to use, what aliases if any, and the username if desired to specify

    @robi In assumption that there is already at least one domain, the code to add a mailbox for a user is already there --> API documentation of Cloudron.

    To implement such feature you would need a checkbox like "create email address", a drop down menu that lists all domains (with mailserver enabled?) and a field for the inbox name.
