May be we do not have the same 'quota -v' output, mine is:

> Disk quotas for drtrigon (uid 1340): Filesystem     usage  quota
> limit    timeleft  files  quota  limit    timeleft /home
> 308.2M 500.0M 1000.0M               6016      0      0

You have to consider that '1340' from '(uid 1340)' does also match the
regex, so it should work fine. At least for me it does for shure since
I got mail as expected. :)

That is in fact true - but to be honest if you use below 1MB you do not
have any need to run this script at all... do you? ;)

> Also, no need to hardcode the email address. You could simply run: 
> (echo Subject: You are reaching your quota && quota -v ) | mail

This is a good hint indeed! Thanks for that! Since I should have
mentioned my script as "cheap'n'dirty" solution there is a lot space
for improvement! On the other hand it is just a work-a-round for a
service that should be done by the toolserver anyway and thus I did
not have the motivation to write "perfect" but "just working" code.

I have mentioned that I just wanted to let profit other toolserver
users from it - nobody HAS to use it... ;) Furthermore I do not give
up the hope that finally some day the toolserver will do this job
and the script can be trashed anyway... ;))

Greetings and have fun!
