Hello,
Probably something that most people must recognize but I haven't come up
with any answer yet. (Tried sendmail FAQ, qpopper FAQ and some dejanews
searching).
We're using quota on our usermailboxes.
When they exceed it the mail is being bounced to the sender stating that
they're exceeding their quota.
When popping mail, qpopper will move the current mailbox to the tmpdrop.
Any mail received in the time of popping will be put in the mailbox.
So here's the problem.
When there's no quota on tmpdrop the mail will be copied, no problem.
The mail received in the mailbox will cause the total to be over the users
quota so mail won't be copied back to the mailbox.
Any new mail will be excepted because the mailbox hasn't exceeded the
quota (although added to the amount of space of the popdrop it does).
Putting both mailspool and tmpdrop on the same volume with the same quota
won't solve the problem because a user exceeding quota won't be able to
pop the mail.
Any solutions/suggestions would be appreciated.
Edwin Ringersma.
