Change default quota

kimdre

How can I change the default quota values in domain and mailbox management in the UI?
I have found matching values in data/web/templates/modals/mailbox.twig, however I’m not sure how consistent the changes are and if this is really the right way to do it.

Login to the admin UI
From the upper-right corner, select Configuration -> Mail Setup menu
You should default to the Domains tab.
Click Edit next to the domain you want to modify quotas for.
You should see values such as “Default mailbox quota” and “Max quota per mailbox”.

Note that individual mailboxes (found in the Mailboxes tab) can set a lower quota than the default, but cannot exceed the max.

Thanks, but I was referring to the default values when you add a new domain.

I’m sorry about that! I suspect that change to mailbox.twig should be fine, but worth keeping tabs on to make sure its not overwritten in a future update to mailcow.

When I check for container drive mappings for ./data/web*, not many come up. A couple containers have the entire ./data/web directory mapped, while some others only have specific files from within it mapped.

grep “./data/web” docker-compose.yml
- ./data/web:/web:z
- ./data/web/inc/init_db.inc.php:/init_db.inc.php:Z
- ./data/web:/web:ro,z
- ./data/web/.well-known/acme-challenge:/var/www/acme:z

Based on the filename you shared, looks like Mailcow’s UI is built in part on the PHP Twig template system:
https://twig.symfony.com

I mention Twig since its use would have a higher chance of being overwritten in a future update.

Perhaps submit an issue in GitHub to request an enhancement to modify these default values?
