Continue with
Section 12.3.2, “Setting Mailbox Size Limits,” on page 183
.
12.3.2 Setting Mailbox Size Limits
After initial size information is recorded on each user’s mailbox, you can establish a limit on the
amount of disk space each user’s mailbox is allowed to occupy. You can set a single limit for an
entire domain. You can set different limits for each post office. You can even set individual user
limits if necessary.
If you are implementing disk space management in an existing GroupWise system where users are
accustomed to unlimited disk space, you should warn them about the coming change. After you
establish the mailbox size limits as described in this section, users whose mailboxes exceed the
established limit cannot send messages until the size of their mailboxes is reduced. Users might
want to manually delete and archive items in advance in order to avoid this interruption in their use
of GroupWise.
To establish mailbox size limits:
1
In ConsoleOne, browse to and select a Domain, Post Office, or User object.
