Quota Warning Problem

Henry

New Email
I've a issue about qmail quota and quota warning.

I'm using vpopmail 5.4.32.
I've a 20MB email account.
I send 2 x 11mb email message to the account.
The 1st email message was received okay.
And the 2nd email message was rejected because user over quota,
but it's strange that qmail send a quota warning message to the email account, said it's over 90% full, but the 2nd email message was dropped by qmail and sent a failure notice to sender automatically.
It shouldn't send a quota warning message to the email account.

I don't know is it any settings or quota script problem. I need a help on this.

Thank you.

Hi Henry

The maildir quota system is not perfect.

Small messages still get delivered.

The second email would have been too big to be delivered.

I have the quota warnings turned off on my vpopmail based systems, they cause too much confusion for the users.

Thank you for the reply.

Is there a any other way for the quota system instead of using maildir quota system?

:thanks:
