At some point, users have to deal with each other. Relying
on root on this machine to do that for you is childish and
immature. Phillip.

\_ We have no power over them. empower me (with root!) and I
will deal with them ...

\_ why dont we reconfigure the local mail agents to put user
mailboxes in user home directories? Then we wont' need
a separate mail partition, and user quotas are handled
better. -ERic
\_ because that idea got shot down the day it was suggested
-- cassandra
\_ on what grounds?
\_ On the grounds that mail hogs couldn't hog anymore?
\_ a moreimportant question is "By who"? and the
corrolary, "Where are the losers now, so we can
safely ignore them?"
\_ we do this at work and it sucks. don't do it unless the
sendmail or equivalent is on the same host w/ the home dirs
(not NFS mounts) and the home disks are as reliable as the
the user mail spool disks. otherwise mail gets lost
and/or delayed w/ all the flaky home disk failures.
\_ Hellloooo... soda runs sendmail on the same box as your
home. Disks of the same type are about equally reliable.
Why would you claim the home disks are less reliable than
the mail disks? Did your IT guys say, "hey! I know! Lets
buy refurb disks for the home dirs! we like doing full
system restores!!!"? Unlikely. Please stop babbling
about the sky falling on your mail spool.
\_ I think he's speaking in more general terms. And
yes, some storage is more reliable. For example,
network-attached storage RAID 1/0 is more reliable than
flaky full-height 1991-vintage disk drives striped
RAID 0. You said "same type" but that wasn't
originally implied. --dim
\_ If he's speaking in general terms then he's
babbling spew since the topic was very specifically
about mail spools on soda. Not network attached
raid at work, not an 8 year old disk, not some
bullshit scenario you're likely to conjure to make
a false point. Mail spools on soda belong in
home directories or the spools themselves should
be hard quoted at a low number like 2 megs. Deal
with your fucking mail and it won't be a problem.
\_ most of the people on root either dont leave
their mail on soda or at least have it delivered
via .forward to another filesystem.
\_ Something others should think about.
\_ HEY PHILLIP, HOW ARE WE SUPPOSED TO 'DEAL' WITH OUR PEERS? SEND
THEM E-MAIL EXPRESSING OUR DISAPPOINTMENT AT THE FULLNESS OF THEIR
MAIL SPOOLS? USE THOUGHTWAVES TO COMPEL THEM TO READ THE MOTD AND
FEEL DEEP SHAME ABOUT THE CONTEXT IN WHICH THEIR NAME APPEARS
THEREIN? OR PAY OUR HOMIES TO TAKE OUT A HIT ON THESE NON-PLAYAS?
\_ Shotguns. Phillip.
