Hi all,

Is it possible to disable domain-wide quotas (sum of all popboxes) and
just to use popbox quotas ? At the moment i have both. Or do i have
to set the domain to NOQUOTA and then configure the popbox
individually to have a quota?

Sincerely,

Domain quotas don't work anyway.
AFAIK, you need OS quotas to get that to work.
But that slows things down.
Ideally, you would have a database of domains and quotas where a 
provisioning system deducts the amounts of diskspace that are given to 
individual users.
Once the domain-quota is used up, it would not allow adding any more 
quota to any user in that domain.


AFAIK, most control-panels with qmail underneath use this way, more or less.


cheers,
Rainer

Thank you for your reply,

Actually i dont want domain quota's to work... its just that now if all
popboxes combined hit 50MB, users get messages. I dont want
that. I just want to use popbox quota's only, which are now set to
25 MB, but i dont want them influenced also by a domain wide
quota somehow. My relevant confiration options were:

--enable-domain-quotas=n(but i saw that this was commented
out in the source, so this wont have much effect anyway)

--enable-hard-quota=y

In the vlimits.default file everything that might be relavant is
commented out.

Domains were created without specifying -q NOQUOTA, perhaps
my error lies in there.
