Subject: help with quotas and sendmail and procmail


> Help :
>
> I am trying to install quotas on my FreeBSD mail server so that my users
> can't have a mail file greater then 5 megs.  I have set up quotas on my
> system and I am postive that they are working on the /var drive.  My
problem
> is that since mail processing daemons (etc) are run by priveledged users,
> they will write to the mail file and exceed the quota.  I read in one of
the
> faqs on sendmail.org that if i use procmail i should be ok because
procmail
> observers quotas.  It tells me to look at the Mlocal line in my
sendmail.cf
> which looks like this :
>
> Mlocal,         P=/usr/libexec/mail.local, F=lsDFMAw5:/|@qrmn9, S=10/30,
> R=20/40
>                     T=DNS/RFC822/X-Unix,
>                     A=mail -d $u

> Obviously, there is no procmail in there so i have changed the line to
this

> But it still doesn't work, the quotas still get exceeded.  I'll be the
first

can
