Hi everybody,
We have an interesting problem that we could not solve.
We have increased user mailbox quotas from 30 MB to 100 MB 1 year ago with a
script. After we increased the quota, users must do a change at their
accounts in order to use their new quotas.(Ex: changing password) The users
that did't make changes at their accounts, couldn't get e-mails after 30 MB
although their quotas' are 100 MB.
It didn't cause us any problems until now. But now there arrived a problem.
The users who didn't make any changes to their accounts(I mean who can't get
emails after 30 MB) and have used their full quota(30MB) and who forwarded
their e-mail accounts to the third party e-mail
accounts(Ex:gmail,hotmail...), get emails multiple times(like 20 or 30
times) *that comes through mailing lists*. They can't get e-mails if we send
directly to that e-mail account because their quotas are full, which is
true.
Do you think is there a way to solve this problem.
Thanks for your help.
I'm attaching the script that we used to increase user quotas.
