You can limit the size of all messages being received with the /var/qmail/control/databytes file You can limit the number of messages any user can keep with user based quotas. The syntax is something like xS,yC where x is the maximum total size of all messages and y is the maximum count of messages. I don't think you can limit the size of any individual email except globally with the databytes file. Ken Jones > > Any help would be appreciated. > > Warm Regards, > Mário Gamito

Re: [vchkpw] Limits
Hi Alexandre If you need limit the number of message send per each day, you can use the "spamguard" software. The URL is http://www.enderunix.org/spamguard/ This software check the logs and block the users spam. - Original Message - From: Alexandre Barbosa To: vpopmail list Sent: Sunday, December 28, 2003 11:02 PM Subject: [vchkpw] Limits Hi, Is there any way to limit the number of "to" at a message and limit a number of messages per day that a user can send ? I want to use it to prevent clients to send spam.
RE: [vchkpw] Limits
there are about 211-dy-seven different patches available for qmail. a quick search on qmail.org for "maxrecipients", "maximum" or "recipients" yields no help. care to share the name of the patch? it might be helpful to those interested in this patch.
