...
my mail server is UNIX platform .

I guess some further Information would be helpfull.

• What mail server are you using?
• How is the mail server connected to the php page?
• Should there be any restrictions on how many aliases one user can create?

If you can provide more information, please do so!

hi every one:

avctualy what i want is this:

the mail server is built on JAVA, so what i want is some way to call a function in jave to my php page.(i read about something called php/java bridge, but i don't how to use it)

for nepomuk:

no limit is defined. but if there, how the solution will be different?

In that case, this should probably be in the Java (or PHP) Forum. However nobody could know, as you didn't give this information. Well, everyone makes mistakes.
The operating system is normally irrelevant, when Java is used (if it is coded apropriately that is).

no limit is defined. but if there, how the solution will be different?

As you probably wrote the server yourself (or at least have the code) it would be easy - you would have to check, if the request to create a new alias is within the limit and only if so allow the creation of a new alias continue.

Then the question comes up: How do the users connect to the mail server at the moment? Is it also webbased or is the alias-project the first webbased part of it?

Here's an example of how to access a Java class (and it's functions) out of PHP:

 <?php
  // Create Instanz of the Java Class java.lang.System in your PHP page
  $system = new Java('java.lang.System');
 
  // Access the functions
  print 'Java version='.$system->getProperty('java.version').' <br>';
  print 'Java vendor=' .$system->getProperty('java.vendor').'  <br>';
  print 'OS='.$system->getProperty('os.name').' '.
              $system->getProperty('os.version').' on '.
              $system->getProperty('os.arch').' <br>';
 
  // java.util.Date Example:
  $formatter = new Java('java.text.SimpleDateFormat',
                        "EEEE, MMMM dd, yyyy 'at' h:mm:ss a zzzz");
 
  print $formatter->format(new Java('java.util.Date'));
?>
