Hi!

My original post was:
---------
I have the following problem.
I enabled quotas on /var/spool/mail. I set up soft and hard limits for
user's mailbox.
Even when the quota is exeeded user still receives mail. Sendmail is
configured to use procmail as local mailer.
Any ideas? How to configure/compile procmail (ver 3.13.1) or sendmail?
System spec.: DU 4.0D with C2, advfs, sendmail 8.9.3.
-------

I had to change mount point. The spooler was mounted on /var/spool/mail
which was a symbolic link to /usr/var/spool/mail.
I changed it in /etc/fstab to real mount point (/usr/var/spool/mail). It
was my mistake ;-(
Procmail v3.13.1 supports quotas. I didn't need to modify C sources of
sendmail and procmail, however
some managers advised doing it.

Thanks to:

Best regards,
