Is there any custom utility I can use to manage my accounts? I need no more than adding users and email addresses to have some test accounts for my development purposes.

I don't want to use regular "user accounts" tool in control panel to add users because:

* I don't want them at my welcome screen
* I can't assign mail address to them

Answer: 
While you can't use the MMC, there should be a control panel applet allowing local user administration. There's always been a limited applet since XP Home. 

'nusermgr.cpl' and 'control userpasswords2' should still work I believe.

If you're looking for a scriptable means to do this you can use 'net user' to add/modify local accounts, (I'm about 90% sure this works for the various Home flavors of Windows) and then add a registry key, via 'reg add', to hide it from the Welcome Screen (See: <http://www.petri.co.il/hide_a_user_from_the_welcome_screen_in_windows_xp.htm>).
Now it is, I missed this functionality too so I created clone, you can download it here: <http://primocode.blogspot.com/2015/06/prils-local-users-and-groups-for.html>. It is not quite finished yet but basic functionalities work ok.
