Wow. I need to read change logs more often. I didn't know about
quota_warm_threshold until your message. (And I just read the specs about
it). It's exactly what I want and would have saved me writing a script
I have for telling people about big mail boxes. (It also would have saved
a friendship with a very angry user who went over inbox quota during
Easter. :-(

[To my boss on who also reads this list: this feature looks very useful,
if it works]

Is exim dying with a useful message? Exactly what is the line that
you have in your config? The way I read the specs it should be something
like

quota_warn_threshold = 4M

Do you have something like that?

Sorry, I can't help there.
