Quotas Question
« on: May 01, 2010, 11:01:12 AM »
If running SME purely for email, will quotas help limit users mailboxes?

What happens if they go 'over quota'?

Thanks!

Be careful. If they go over quota, incoming messages will be deferred int the mail spool, and eventually be bounced if undelivered in a week. If they go over quota and ignore warning messages (so that the quota becomes 'hard'), they may find that they are unable to delete existing messages. That's because the imap server's lock and index files are covered by the same quota as the mail folders. Check the bug tracker for details.
