Soft quotas

[Vliegtuig]

I think I have made a request for this before, but I can no longer find it. The current forum does not allow me to me to find my own posts (argh!) and the search option seems to return nothing when searching for ' soft quota'.

Anyway: the feature request itself is pretty straightforward. The implementation most likely is not.

I would really (really, really!) like to see an implementation of soft quotas for the following:

• Webmail
• Cpanel accounts

Our users do not have their own FTP access and 99% of them don't even know what FTP is. They still have the ability to clog up their space by uploading lots of files through our CMS, resulting in error messages when the package is reaching full state. We have already altered the messages that are sent so that they explain the situation and possible solutions, but still, it would be a LOT easier if the account would use soft quotas and thus, not hinder proper usage.

By "soft quota" do you mean that you set a disk quota, but users are allowed to exceed this?

Also, have you considered modifying your CMS to curb file uploads as cPanel users near their disk quota?

Furthermore, I am unable to replicate the issue of getting 0 results when searching for soft quotas. Can you possibly PM me a screen capture of this so I can have this diagnosed?
