run the following query: select userid,curmail_size from dbmail_users order by curmail_size desc limit 10; Now go tell these people to clean up their mailboxes, they're the space hogs. You might be surprised how big some people's mailboxes are. I personally also have a query that deletes all unread emails older than 6 months. Reason for this is people who never read their mailbox due to it being forwarded elsewhere, but cc'ing locally: echo "update dbmail_messages m, dbmail_mailboxes b, dbmail_physmessage p set m.deleted_flag=1,m.status=2 where m.mailbox_idnr=b.mailbox_idnr and p.id=m.physmessage_id and m.seen_flag = 0 and p.internal_date < date_sub(now(), interval 180 day);" | mysql -u USER -pPASS dbname Regards, Josh. _______________________________________________ DBmail mailing list DBmail@dbmail.org http://mailman.fastxs.nl/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dbmail
