RE: [qmailadmin] New 1.0.7 01/13/2003 version available

2003-01-15 Thread Michael Bowe
 I just checked the code, in user.c and it looks like the 
 quota patch allows for setting the quota to any value. Just 
 added new code to #ifdef ENABLE_MODIFY_QUOTA in the add and 
 modify user code to completely disable setting quota's if 
 --enable-modify-quota=n
 
 Also just updated the add_user template to use 
 add_user_quota.html and add_user_noquota.html depending on 
 MODIFY_ENABLE_QUOTA

Also, I think some ifdef's would need to be added to the
add mailing list screen

This screen is showing a QUOTA box even if you have 
configured qmailadmin with 

  --enable-modify-quota=n

And if I can make one other v1.0.7 suggestion I don't think 
those links to the user and admin guides should be included
on the qmailadmin login page.

The pages they link to are not very generic, they contain 
information specific to the ISP that authored the instructions. 
These pages are going to cause a lot of confusion amongst 
qmailadmin end-users.

By including the links you are also making qmailadmin reliant on 
a 3rd-party's web server and document authoring skills... 
Not such a hot idea in my opinion.

Although some of us know how to go and remove such HTML from
show_login.html, I think many less technical users are not going
to know how to do this, and then they will be stuck with these
confusing links on their login pages...

Michael.

Hi,

When I enable-modify-quota, selecting modify user in the email accounts 
section gives:

warning: file name is symbolic link mod_user_new.html

any ideas?

cheers, Iain.

 Source: http://www.inter7.com/devel/qmailadmin-1.0.7.01132003.tar.gz

 A new configure option is available
 --enable-modify-quota=y/N (default is no)

 Enable this option to yes will display the quota change
 field in the modify user section to allow domain admins (postmaster)
 to change the quota for any user. The default is to not allow
 anyone to change to quota. Hopefully this should fit the needs
 of sites that want quota change and those sites who do not
 want to allow it. The default gives the old behavior.

 Please give this one a good work out!
 Once there are no problems found we can release
 this as the new stable version.

Ken,

one question.

Which patch is this? The one using the postmaster's quota as pool from 
which to add and subtract users quotas, or does just let postmaster modify 
quota without any limit?

No one has sent me a patch like that.

 Ken,

 speaking as provider, it does not make sense to me just let postmasters to
 decrease their user's quota (they will never do it), nor letting them to
 increase as they want (I don't want it!).

 I've read here in the past that someone made a nice patch, using the
 postmaster's quota as pool to use as general quota of the domain. Each new
 user, or each increased quota value for any user would be decreased from
 postmaster's quota, any deletion of user or any decrease of user's quota
 would increase the postmaster's quota.

 I'ld like to see that patch included, it would solve my problems (and a lot
 of other providers too, I think).

 It would enought to do that only within qmailadmin, without touching
 vpopmail.

 I wonder if we should change the code so it won't let the postmaster

Hello,

This may be a *little* off-topic, but not by too much,
I hope...

Is this independent of, say, Vpopmail's quota support?
 For example, if this quota option is disabled in
Qmailadmin, we can still control a mailbox quota using
Vpopmail, correct?

Actually, would this even have an effect on Vpopmail
mailboxes, or it it really only for users in the
/etc/passwd (or equivalent) file? (i.e., real
accounts)

The qmailadmin quota code works with vpopmail's
quota code. Same system.
