Is there a way to adjust the cron function so that we can run either a certain amount of accounts each night, spread over a week, or a way to do usernames in a specific letter range rather than by selecting the usernames to go from and to?
the reason i ask is with servers constantly adding accounts what may have been the first account starting with the letter e may not be the case if that account is deleted or new accounts starting with e that are higher up the sort order would be missed?
We have several clients with small cpu based servers and cxs is taking anywhere up to 8 hours to complete, which then interferes with the cpanel backup schedule overnight and the next mornings 9am rush on the server for mail etc...
cron usernames starting with letter A to D, then E to H etc?

There's no way at present, only the from/to for usernames. I'll have a think about adding such a feature.

We've added a change to the --jumpfrom and --jumpto to allow you to do this now. See the changelog/docs for more information in v1.44
