Hello Mike,

 Thank you again for your support, this is the output of mount and fstab

# Device Mountpoint FStype Options Dump Pass#
/dev/ad0s1b             none            swap    sw              0       0

$ mount
/dev/ad0s1a on / (ufs, local)
/dev/ad0s1e on /tmp (ufs, local, soft-updates)
/dev/ad0s1f on /usr (ufs, local, with quotas, soft-updates)
/dev/ad0s1g on /var (ufs, local, soft-updates)
procfs on /proc (procfs, local)

I just want the quota to read the Shell user (home directory) size plus the INBOX mails
which stay in /var/mail/$UserName

 Currently the quota reads the home directory and ignores the $inbox
 Thak you mike

 No when I enabled quota I did the configuration on /usr
 shall i enable it on /var to?
then how to make the sendmail or the shell reads the user quota on his home directory and
 his /var/mail/$username ?


Hi,
It all depends on how you have it mounted. Quotas follow the partition. So if you have /var/mail as its own partition, you need to do it there. If you have /var/mail as a subdirectory of /var than do it on /var.

What is the contents of /etc/fstab on the box ?

if webmin can read the home directory quota and add to it the /var/mail/$userInbox size
 then for sure I can do it some how?

I dont use webmin so I am not sure how it calculates things.
