The first line in maildirsize tells the quota was set to 73400320 which means that "maildirmake -q73400320S" was called. It's 70MB Other lines tell the curent usage, 65735365 (100 mails) and two mails of sizes 2792 and 2565 were removed. The current size is 65730008 B (62.685 MB) which means the available space is 7670312 B (7.314 MB) which is less than 12.32M needed for the mail. So the user does NOT have enough of free space in maildir. > > we have counted the percent for "-w" option to maildrop so when it's > > reached and the users get warning the time when remaining space falls below > > maximum message size.

But not when the percentage is hit and > mail is left to mailq as it won't fit in. my experience saye that the warning mails are stored in the maildir every day (24h) when the percentage is hit. Which means, if the mail stays in queue for 5 days, 4-5 warnings get delivered. > > you can always count the required percent from the quota anx X :) > > Yes, but as the maildirsize tells the maildir's situation, not counting > the big message in the queue. So I would need to know is there something > in the queue for the user. If you know the user has 70MB quota and the maximum allowed mail size is 14MB, it means that if mailbox usage crosses 80% ((70 - 14) / 70 * 100), there may be a mail that doesn't fit there. In such case you have to use maildrop -w 80 for this user. -- Matus UHLAR - fantomas, uh...@fantomas.sk ; http://www.fantomas.sk/ Warning: I wish NOT to receive e-mail advertising to this address.
