Mail Quota

[waseemp17]

Hello,

This the first time I use Zimbra.
I need to ask:
1) What is the maximum limit for the Mail Quota?
2) How I can create mail quota for each account?

thanks

So there's no theoretical limit (well file system max) just set 0 = unlimited.
The max value for zimbraMailQuota (if you wanted to 'cap'/the most that attribute can contain) is 8 Exabytes (= 8,192 Petabytes = 8,388,608 Terabytes = 8,589,934,592 Gigabytes)

Admin Console > COS or Account > Advanced
zmprov mc COSname zimbraMailQuota 0
zmprov ma user@domain.com zimbraMailQuota 0

<attr id="16" name="zimbraMailQuota" type="long" cardinality="single" optionalIn="account,cos" flags="accountInfo,accountInherited,domainAdminMod ifiable">
<defaultCOSValue>0</defaultCOSValue>
<desc>mail quota in bytes</desc>
</attr>

Java int: −2,147,483,648 to +2,147,483,647
Java long: 9,223,372,036,854,775,808 to +9,223,372,036,854,775,807

From the admin console the most you can enter in the field is 8,796,093,022,207 Megabytes which = 9,223,372,036,853,727,000 Bytes (or do unlimited quota by typing 0).

Edited the above post to explain the 0 for unlimited vs the max you could 'cap'/fit into the zimbraMailQuota attribute a little better.
