We have a system with diskquota enabled. Some students have found a
way to get more quota by storing in their mail file in
/usr/spool/mail.
We have thought of two solutions:
1. Enable quotas on the spool disk. Limits the problem but
doesn't solve it. And, if a user get lots of mail...
2. Keep spool files in the users home-directory. Has the
the same disadvantages.
If you have any good ideas, email them to me. I'll summarize.
