Topic: disk partitioning for new installation

Hi,

Simple question, but I searched and couldn't find the answer.

It looks like mail (by default) is stored in /var/vmail.

Is there any other filesystem location that a significant amount of data is stored in?

Thanks,

mark

Re: disk partitioning for new installation

Not large but you may need to consider:
- SQL databases. e.g. MariaDB /var/lib/mysql/.
- Postfix queue (/var/spool/postfix/). If there're many emails in a short period of time, the queue may grow quickly.
