    ISPConfig is an outstanding Control Panel, and I would like to thank the developers for their time and effort put into a project that is FREE for me to use. I would also like to thank them for the opportunity for me to request additional features.

    Feature Requests:
    1. It would be nice if ISPConfig would have support without any additional configuration (out of the box) for the administrator / reseller to grant the customer a certain number of PostgreSQL databases from the ISPConfig control panel with limits up to at least 100 databases.
    2. The ISPConfig control panel only allows the customer to have a maximum of 30 MySQL databases. It would be nice if the administrator or reseller could grant any valid number of databases via an input box, instead of the predefined limits of up to 30 (out of the box).
    3. Ability to accept email with certain spam scores and mark as spam, but reject email with certain spam scores, instead of just accepting or rejecting based on one score.
    4. Mailing lists.
    5. Ability for customer to add / run cron jobs from control panel.

    My greatest concern is number 1, as this is a major deciding point for many customers (in my experience)!

    Do you think you will ever need more than 30 MySQL databases for a single web site?

    Actually, yes, I have. Right now it hasn't bashed me on the head to badly, but at some point I'm going to have to hack the system to "fix" the issue. The two sites that need more then 30 that I have right now I entered their extra by hand.

    Yes

    I have run into this problem already and is why I have suggested it be "fixed". To "fix" this problem, I have also used phpMyAdmin to grant additional databases to customers.
    To "fix" the PostgreSQL problem I have used phpPgAdmin to grant databases for customers.
    Just because one person may only need 30 databases, doesn't mean that I should be limited based on his needs.

    Do you think you will ever need an infinite number of space, traffic, users, and domains? Theoretically it is impossible to need an infinite amount, yet these options exist in ISPConfig. I remember some years ago being asked a similar question. Why would you ever need a 250MB HDD? Who could ever use that much storage?

    Again, many thanks for all your hard work that was put into this outstanding project!

    I've added it to our To-Do list.
