• Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service. If you'd like to be part of the discovery process and share your experiences, we invite you to complete this short screening survey. If your responses match the persona we are looking for, you'll receive a link to schedule a call at your convenience. We look forward to hearing from you!
  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Mail Box Size

Hi Guys,

I have Plesk V9 running on linux and and I can't seem to find were I can see how large a mail file is.

I have one domain that is reporting itself ast 1.7GB big, but according to Unix the entire domain's file structure is only 300mb. So there must be a stack of data tied up in one of the mailboxes, but I can't seem to work out how to find it.

any help you can provide would be great.

Cheers
John
 
Hi,

You can use a du command. Emails are stored at /var/qmail/mailnames/yourdomain.tld/emailadresses/
per domain storage, use this: du -hs /var/qmail/mailnames/yourdomain.tld
per email storage in domain, use this: du -hs /var/qmail/mailnames/yourdomain.tld/*
