Please check documentation for:

http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-2651/6n4u5ce7i?a=view

store.defaultmailboxquota(sets quota for all mailboxes. After setting this, restart Messaging, and run imintquota -a)

store.quotaenforcement (turn this on)

store.quotaexceededmsg (the message that gets sent)

store.quotanotification (turn this on)

store.quotawarn (set this to your 95% It defaults to 90%))

Hi Jay

Thanks for your reply but i want to know how the messaging server

will bounce the messages

store.quotagraceperiod

Time (in hours) the mailbox is over quota before the server starts

bouncing the messages. Messages will remain in the queue

until one of the following:

?The mailbox no longer exceeds the quota.

?The user has remained over quota longer than the specified grace

period.

?The message has remained in the queue longer than the maximum

message queue time.

Default: 120.

Thanks in Advance

Hi,

>> Thanks for your reply but i want to know how the messaging server

>> will bounce the messages

What exactly do you mean by this?

If the user is within their grace period when the account hits 100% the message will be queued, rather then being bounced as 'over quota'. Please note that the grace period (120 hours == 5 days) starts when the account exceeds the store.quotawarn level.

You can have the email bounce immediately simply by setting the grace period to 0.

If you are using front-end MTA/back-end store configuration, I would recommend that you enable the following option:

local.store.overquotastatus

Description: Enable quota enforcement before messages are enqueued in the MTA. This prevents the MTA queues from filling up. When set, and a user is not yet over quota, but an incoming message pushes the user over quota, then the message is delivered, but the mailuserstatus LDAP attribute is set to overquota so no more messages will be accepted by the MTA.

Regards,

Shane.
