Re: [vchkpw] Hard Quota's in VPOPMAIL
I did realize, whatever the postmaster account quota is users that are created based on this template. I'm assuming the number 0 doesn't apply to mean unlimited quota. I did find the answer or you can set the vpasswd setting for the user to NOQUOTA. Thanks for the direction.

Re: [vchkpw] Hard Quota's in VPOPMAIL
Because your setting only effects the postmaster user when you open domain with vQadmin, then vqadmin sets a domain quota, after that qmailadmin use that domain quota for a default quota. I am almost sure your postmaster user doesnt have any quota, right? When you use vQadmin you should set the domain quota to something. Honestly I never wanted to disable it so I dont know what to write there. Perhaps n or something. Or a very big number would do. Did this help? :) Evren PS. FreeBSD :) good choice...

[vchkpw] Hard Quota's in VPOPMAIL
I'm installing VPOPMAIL 5.3.20 from the ports on FreeBSD 4.8 release. Everything installs but I can't figure out why the hard quota always shows up even though I put in the configure HARDQUOTA=n in the Makefile, I've compiled it with no quotas and yet when I finally get around to adding email accounts via QmailAdmin it says my quota is 10 meg? Any help or direction would be appreciated. * - * * Steve Schofield - MCP, CCA * [EMAIL PROTECTED] * * Microsoft MVP - ASP.NET * http://www.aspfree.com * - *
Re: [vchkpw] Hard Quota's in VPOPMAIL
I just want to let ya know the mail server is for me personally, it won't be used commercially and quotas cause issues for the number of lists i'm on. This was the first time i installed vqadmin, i had always done stuff from the conf files. This was a bit of a challenge to install but I got it working on FreeBSD file paths are a bit different though than the examples. I'm coming from the background of using IMAIL and Windows 2000. IMAIL has an option to turn off quotas off for certain users, this is necessary for me because I'm on several dozen lists and receive a lot of mail, if it isn't possible to turn quotas completely off I'll just crank the number real high.

Re: [vchkpw] Hard Quota's in VPOPMAIL
what is the quota of your postmaster account with the current settings?

Re: [vchkpw] Hard Quota's in VPOPMAIL
10 meg is what shows up. ps - I really like FreeBSD, it forces me to really learn how stuff needs to be configured. Forces someone to the command line without a GUI. For someone with no *nix experience or background its the perfect learning OS. I've spent 8 months and still learning and having more fun. * - * * Steve Schofield - MCP, CCA * [EMAIL PROTECTED] * * Microsoft MVP - ASP.NET * http://www.aspfree.com * - * - Original Message - From: "Evren Yurtesen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Steve Schofield" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, August 09, 2003 11:53 AM Subject: Re: [vchkpw] Hard Quota's in VPOPMAIL > what is the quota of your postmaster account with the current settings? > > Evren > > On Sat, 9 Aug 2003, Steve Schofield wrote: > > > I just want to let ya know the mail server is for me personally, it won't be > > used commercially and quotas cause issues for the number of lists i'm on. > > This was the first time i installed vqadmin, i had always done stuff from > > the conf files.
