Hi,
I run an ISP and provide e-mail services for a few thousand people. I
run exim on a gentoo machine. My users details are stored in a mysql
database.
Every now an then, I get a complaint that mails don't come through. Its
due to my message_size_limit
I have a global message_size_limit of 100M
I also have a per user configurable limit - the value is in the DB
table... and a configurable quote per person - so my 'delivery' block
looks like...
----------------------------------------------------------
mysql_delivery:
driver = appendfile
directory = /var/spool/mail/$domain/$local_part/
maildir_format = true
directory_mode = 0755
create_directory = true
user = smmsp
group = smmsp
mode = 0660
message_size_limit = ${lookup mysql {select imsize from admin \
where user='${local_part}@${domain}'}}M
quota = ${lookup mysql {select mquota from admin \
where user='${local_part}@${domain}'}}M
quota_is_inclusive=false
quota_warn_threshold = 80%
message_suffix = ${lookup mysql {insert into maillog set
mfrom='${quote_mysql:$sender_address}',\
mto='${quote_mysql:$local_part}@${domain}', domain='${domain}',
mvia='${quote_mysql:$sender_host_address}',\
msize=${message_size}, mdelivered=current_timestamp,
mailid='$message_id', mspam='$spam_score_int',\
mreturn='${quote_mysql:$return_path}' }{}{}}
quota_warn_message = "\
To: $local_part@$domain\n\
Subject: Mailbox is 80% full\n\n\
This message is automatically created by the mail delivery system.\n\n\
The size of your mailbox has exceeded the warning threshold of 80%.\n\
Please consider cleaning out old e-mail or reducing the number of
days\n\
you keep mail on the system (a local E-Mail setting).\n\n\

----------------------------------------------------------
When an e-mail bounces back to the sender - it does not appear to have
any "Message too big" message in the bounced e-mail. How do I fix that?
Is there a way to also send a brief e-mail to the recipient client that
there was a problem - that someone was sending an e-mail that was too
big of X bytes and that their limit is Y bytes..... something similar to
"quota_warn_message" ??
