Re: Mail Restrictions with sendmail

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Hi,

Thanks once again,

ONE MORE THING IS NEEDED.

I want to limit mail sizes for both incoming and outgoing mails.

Let's say

userx@xxxxxxxxxxx can send mails up to 5MB, but can receive up to 2MB

usery@xxxxxxxxxxx can send and receive mails up to 5MB.

All the other users can send mails as usual (i.e - without restrictions)


Can procmail do it? (i-e- /etc/procmailrc  - system wide configuration)

pls let me know?

According to your list of filesystems below, yes, /var definitely needs
quota turned on.

Only if you intend to lump both mailbox quota and home directory quota
together. If you need to enable separate quotas for these...you need
another solution. If you do not need quotas for anything but mail, just
turn on quotas for /var.
