Re: Remove quota from user mailboxes

Excuse me, what do you mean "remove quota"? Do you want to delete all mail messages stored in mailbox? If so, you can delete related files under /var/vmail/vmail1/.

WARNING:

* Please find the correct mailbox under /var/vmail/vmail1/ for certain user.
* Deleted files cannot be restored.

Re: Remove quota from user mailboxes

Hi, Zhang.

Sorry for not being clear enough - when I create new email, the default quota for that user/mailbox is 1GB. I can set it up to arbitrary number but I can not say 'no quota for this user'. Is there a way to configure iredmail to do so?

Try 0 on the quota value and it will be unlimited.
