my point is that this should be in the web admin along
with everything else.

Re: [IMail Forum] AddUser.exe and Mailbox Quotas
these are the kind of problems you run into when
still you're using Windows 3.11 apps along with a web app. This
functionality should be already built into 2006 iadmin.

Eric,
Exactly correct. Setting the max mailbox size on the domain and in the "default user settings" did not cause users created with adduser.exe to adopt this setting. Adding users via the iMail 2006.04 web admin did cause users to adopt this setting.
The adddomain string I'm using is:
adddomain -h mail.domain.ext -I VIRTUAL -x 30000000 -l 20000000 -t E:\iMail\Imail\mail.domain.ext -a domain.ext
The adduser string I'm using is:
adduser -h mail.domain.ext -u UserName -p "XXXXX"
Both seem to add users to the registry consistent with the data created via the web-driven process, except for the MaxSize reg key in the user's node.
Clearly adduser.exe doesn't look at this domain default key when creating users. Very frustrating.
I did use Matt's recommendation to edit the registry in bulk and reimport, but this is a very locked-down data center. Following change controls for importing registry keys is a very painful and lengthy process.
Thanks

Using the adddomain and setting the max size setting should set this at the
domain level. Did it not? If it did then everyone on that domain will be
covered by it unless you assign them a different value individually

Subject: [IMail Forum] AddUser.exe and Mailbox Quotas
This may be a trivial question, but...
I created several hundred mail domains in iMail 2006.04 via the
AddDomain.exe utility. I did specify a default mailbox size.
When creating users using adduser.exe, the new users do not adopt the
default mailbox size. I then remembered the "Default User Settings"
section of User Administration. This did not get set by the adddomain.exe
util. I set it manually and then created another account using
adduser.exe, but it still didn't adopt the quota size.
Is there a way to specify the mailbox quota for users from the command
line utils that isn't published? I do *not* want to edit several thousand
users one by one in the registry.
I know I can go back in after creating users and use the "Global User
Change" util in Web Administration, but I didn't want to do that for
several hundred domains either.
Thanks to anyone with some insight...
