Hi,
I'm running out of root disk space on my system and I'd like to move one /home/user/mail folder to another partition to free some space.
I tried that by creating a symbolic link pointing from /home/user/mail to /mnt/stuff/mail and it seemed to work only half way. I can read mail, but when sending email with Thunderbird IMAP, it says that saving message to outbox failed. I've ensured that the user has write permissions to the symlinked folder (i.e. "cd mail", "touch file" is able to create file in the new folder normally).
Any ideas why it failed and how to make this work? Thanks!
