Default mailbox quota

Post by Philb »

Hi,

I recently migrated my may server to a new host and updated to 9.14.

I have found that, when creating a new mailbox, "Mailbox has a size limit" is checked by default and the limit is zero KB, even though there is no limit at the Post Office level.

Is there a way to reset the default to no limit for all new mailboxes?

Thanks

Hi,

Open the administration console and navigate to: Messaging Manager > Post Offices > postoffice name. Click on the postoffice name and in the right hand pane "Actions" menu use the "Set Quotas" option to set all quotas for all mailboxes.

Thanks Ian.

Unfortunately, that does not set the default for new mailboxes, which is the problem I encountered.

Under Messaging Manager, Properties, Administration tab, the default was set not to limit but new mailboxes were consistently created with a quota of zero KB.

I set the above to on and applied and then set it off and applied. New mailboxes are now created without a quota. Maybe a side-effect of migrating to a new server.

Cheers
