Virtual Users And Domains With Postfix, Courier, MySQL And SquirrelMail (quotas)

Hi,

Does anyone know if there are limitations to the quotas of the virtual mailboxes?

I setup a mailbox with 5GB of quota (5*1024*1024*1024 in the quota field), but when I was migrating mails from another mailserver (3GB of data) suddenly the IMAP client responded with an error telling "[ALERT] You exceeded your mail quota.".

Any ideas?

Thanks.
Kris.

 

ok, I found a solution for the mailbox limitation issue; apparently the postfix configuration was limited to mailboxes with a size of ±50MB.

After issuing following commands the max mailbox size is changed (the settings below will allow a virtual mailbox size of 50GB (50 * 1024 * 1024 * 1024):

# change virtual_mailbox_limit parameter in postfix configuration
postconf -e virtual_mailbox_limit=53687091200
# restart postfix
service postfix restart

I hope this post will help others...
