12/4    Ok so there's a hard mail quota and a soft mail quota but why are
        they so insanely high?  No one should be storing 15+ megs in their
        spool for an extended period of time.
        \_ Why are you questioning having a lot of disk space? better
           to have too much than too little.
           \_ Because people abuse it and fill the partition and then no one
              can get their mail if soda's mail spool is the final destination.
              That's not clear?
              \_ Yes it's not clear since only a handful are even remotely
                 close to using their full 15 megs.
                \_ Duh, hello, welcome to Cal.  The point being that 15 megs
                   was way too generous in the first place not that they'd all
                   hit 15 megs.  Point being cap should be lowered to 2 or 3
                   megs.  Have the entrance standards to Cal really dropped
                   so low that basic reading comp is no longer required?  Or
                   is this just a motd problem?  Should I be tossing Cal
                   resumes out of hand instead of giving bonus points for it?
                   \_ point noted, but let's not forget that stupidity is
                      relative
