With my vdlivermail.c .. it will create ".quotawarn1" and ".quotawarn2"
(with dot) ... and if this file is in user directory, then Admin mail will
not send the warning message. If the quota is less then 80% .. then
vdelivermail will delete both.
If the quotas is becaming between 80 - 90% after more then 90%, vdelivermail
will not send the 80% warning messages, but if you up agian more then 90%,
the warning message will sending again, because it just delete the
.quotawarn2. It's my setting in my system. But if you still do not want the
system to send warning in this situation, you can edit the vdelivermail.c
in your own setting, maybe not 80 and 90% but 80% and 95%, then you change
0.9 with 0.95.
