[solved] default mail quota - kouga - 11-17-2009 05:30 PM

Hi all,

I want to change the default mail quota size.
At the moment it is set to 10Mb.
Wish to change it to 50Mb.

Is /etc/ispcp/database/database.sql the right one to edit?
Or, is there some other file needed to edit.

Someone, please help... Sad

For change the sending mail quota you must add a value at /etc/postfix/main.cf

Code:

pico /etc/postfix/main.cf

Code:

# Message size limit

# => 0 for unlimited

# => 104857600 for 100 MB

message_size_limit           = 52428800

don't forget to restart postfix

Thanks for your quick reply, Knut Big Grin

Sorry for the rack of explanation.
I meant to change the default mail quota in mysql database.

My ispCP runs with Dovecot's quota plug-in with mysql at backend.
I need the default quota set to 50Mb, and let my client change the
quota size by phpmyadmin or using Web interface mentioned HERE.

We've did some small changes in the interface to allow the quota modification, I'll look for the script and post it somewhere...

We are currently using this patch (it should apply cleanly on rev2175 branch 1.0.3).
It allows you ONLY IF you are using DOVECOT, to be able to edit the quota from the control pannel.
It's not the same patch you posted, our version is simpler and only does the quota stuff.
It's only valid for dovecot because, with courier you are not reading the mailboxes information from the database directly as you do with dovecot.

To change the default quota I think you have to alter the database to match the value you need. It's better if you do it directly from phpmyadmin changing the structure of the table.

aseques,

Thank you for the great patch!! I will try this later.

Meanwhile, I still don't have a clue how to change the default mail quota.
I'm a bit confused by the suggested method you gave me.
"directly from phpmyadmin changing the structure of the table. "
How is this possible...?

Thank you so much for your help Smile
