Subject: [vchkpw] Domain limits

Hi,
Yes I know they are " Broken",  however... I saw a recent post (I
think
on this list) claiming it works to 2G, is this the case?

In other words, If I wanted to introduce a low cost  Email only plan,
that allows them to have unlimited email accounts and aliases but cant
occupy more than 2G of disk space, will this in fact actually work?

Is this the only thing that it is broken with, not being able to
exceed
2G ?


I actually used domain limits for about a year.  This was on a fairly
busy set of servers, and I couldn't figure out why the load was always
so high on the servers and there was so much network traffic.  Domain
limits are horrible.  On every message that goes through the system,
vpopmail adds up the size of all the messages in all the mailboxes.  I'm
still not sure why it's even a configuration option still...


Ahhh bugger, thanks, it makes sense

Cheers

If you want to provide a domain wide limit, use the kernels quota tools
and create the domain with a unique user ID.  It's pretty well
documented in the archives of the list.

HTH,

Tren
