> 1) Minor: Why do you want a large /home? To let the users organise their mails in folders (using squirrelmail or maybe another webmail client). If there are other ways of do this I would be very pleased to know them. > Remember to make overquota a temp/soft failure then if that is what you > want. sorry about my ignorance, but what does it (temp/soft failure) mean. Restructuring setup ---------------------------------- Hardware: Pentium III 1.4Ghz 256 RAM 40 GB HD-IDE Soft: CentOS 4.2 Postfix Cyrus-IMAPd Partitioning(in MB): / 1.000 /boot/ 100 swap 512 /home/ 15.888 /tmp/ 500 /var/ 7.000 /var/spool/imap/ 15.000 What do you think 'bout this? I agree with you that is needed more memory, and more disk space, I'll work to upgrade the hardware. Would be recommended to separate /var/logs/ and /var/spool/mqueue/ in different partitions too? or is enough with separate only /var/.
