Updating max email account quotas

[waterman34]

Hi

Is there a way to globally update all existing email accounts quotas in WHM from default 250mg to 500mb?

Hello

The following option under the "Mail" tab within "WHM >> Server Configuration >> Tweak Settings" will allow you to change the default value:

"Default user-defined quota value for new email accounts"

Remember to ensure the option below it called "Default quota option for new email accounts" is set to "User-defined". Note that you have to change the quota for existing email accounts manually or utilize our API to develop a script that finds all email accounts and changes their quotas.

Thank you.

Hello guys, I'm in the same boat, having to find all email accounts and change their quota.
Can you point out to some script to do that as I'm not familiar with the API. I bet it must be just a loop and a couple commands, right?

Hello

I'm not aware of a specific third-party application that will make the change, but you can utilize the following UAPI function:

UAPI Functions - Email::edit_pop_quota - Software Development Kit - cPanel Documentation

Thank you.
