You should always put the question in the body of the message. Not all 
newsreaders make it easy to see the subject when the body is displayed.

Posting to one of the Plone lists is more likely to get you a comprehensive 
answer, but:

Use:

   acl_users.changeOrCreateUsers(new_users=listofUserIds,
        default_password=whatever, REQUEST=REQUEST)

to create a list of users, then iterate through them calling 

   user = portal_membership.getMemberById(userid)
   user.setMemberProperties({'email':email, 'fullname':fullName})

to get the user object and set the fullname and email.
