Package: quota
Version: 3.12-6
Severity: wishlist
Right now when the quota system sends emails, it leaves the subject
empty. It'd be nice if it supplied a descriptive subject line instead,
so I'd see something like "Over quota on /home/whatever" or "Over quota
on /foo, last warning!", which would make the emails much easier to spot.
Thanks,
Christian

I checked again and tried reproducing this again but couldn't do this.
The only way I can imaging that this happens is if you had a pretty old
pre-sarge installation to begin with. Back then the default subject was
empty but this has been fixed a long time ago. There is some logic to
take care of this upgrade but it is difficult to say what happened.

Which exactly is what is used since version 3.11-1 or so. So I think we
can close this report, right?
