Jorge,

You're cleaning out messages, but you're not reclaiming the table space.

In your first reply in this thread, you wrote:

You need to run 'dbmail-util -c' as well, which runs an ANALYZE TABLE for each table. At this point, I recommend doing what everyone else is saying you should do, which is to see how an ANALYZE performs on a _backup_ copy of your database. Find out how long your tables will be locked. Schedule a maintenance window on the real database once you know how much time you need, and once you have a backup ready in case something goes wrong.

Yes but i have quota for all users, unless me.
So counting the maxmail_size for everyone, the db only could grow up
to that value of 22GB, not 65GB


This is not true, if you don't do maintainance.
(database, not dbmail)
