> How do other providers deal with this? I make /var reasonably large and if it starts getting within a few 10's of megabytes of full, send nasty mail to the pigs. If it becomes critical, I compress the mailbox and put it in their home directory. If their home directory overflows their quota, that's their problem, but I don't have to deal with bounced mail and they don't get kicked off mailing lists. I would probably automate it if were a real problem, but it's pretty rare. -- Alan Batie ______ batie@agora.rdrop.com \ / Freedom for me to be and do +1 503 452-0960 \ / only what *you* approve of 45 28 59 N / 122 43 20 W / 440' MSL \/ is no freedom at all.
