Dear ALPHA Managers,
I have a dec alpha 400 running osf/1 v 3.2. During the last year the number of
mail users increased a lot and the new mail messages are stored by the mailx
program in the directory /usr/var/spool/mail.
A lot of the users are subscribers of mailing lists producing a lot of
daily messages therefore the amount of messages stored in the
/usr/var/spool/mail is growing up rapidly. I have only 80 MB left in the usr
file system and I am afraid that during the summer holidays I can run out
of space due to the mail messages.
I would like to know if it is possible to push the mailx program to deliver the
new messages directly in the directory of each user
or
if it is possible to link the /usr/var/spool/mail to an other directory in
a larger file system
Thank you for your help
