Will work on cPanel Mail only

This is a simple extension for many of us who use cpanel email, that we create on cpanel and use for ourself or provide to our clients.
However, to reach the mail we provide the cpanel login page for the client to login.
This does not look too good as the client has to login to his account from cpanel page
(example: http://yourclientssite.com:2095/login).

To make this passover, that is "client login>>mail client", smooth this plugin is here. Basically I had created this for a client but then thought this maybe useful for some.

How it works?
This is simply a login form.
Create a page called 'mail' (or anything you want) on your site and place this extension on it. You may configure it as per requirement.
Make the mail page extension as php
Now upload the page and goto 'mail.php'.....enter your cpanel email and the password and click on Login
And you will directly reach the mail page of your cpanel.
So, virtually the login process acts on YOUR page and not on cPanel


Demo:(obviously you dont have the login so login wont work for you; but you can see the visuals)

What an incredible coincidence!!
I've just setup a new email system for someone who will normally access it through POP3. On a few occasions he wants access via webmail and I was just thinking there must be a better way for him to logon.
Now I see this new extension.
Thanks very much.

Just one thing!
It would be nice to have an optional default email address already filled in so that the user just needs to fill in the password.

I'm on 7.6 and it shows without having to do a reset.
Have you definitely installed it in the right place? ;-)
