Hi Jenna

Many thanks, looks good but please confirm this does not replace the email address auto setup defined from nodeworx.

Also, if it does not, looking at the code, it should be easy to change to auto setup an alias email address for new siteworx account, which is the missing feature a few users wanted.

Many thanks

John
