Hello all,
i had a little bit of a freakout today because i raised the disk space limit of an email account that was slightly over quota, and, when i raised the limit, the 'usage' jumped up as well, like so:
First, the account was 7.3GB of 7GB max..
i raised the max to 10GB (10240MB)
Suddenly the reported usage jumped to 13.56GB of 10GB!!!
So i had to raise the limit to 15GB (15360MB)
and now the account reports that it is 13.56GB of 150GB!!!
this same exact behavior has been reproduced with every single email account i tried, across multiple clients..
Every time i change the limit, the account reportedly grows by 85%..
However, if i look up the size of the accounts using du, i see they really have not changed:
in the case of the original account i spoke about above, doing this:
du -m --max-depth=1 /home/<USER>/imap/<domain.com>/<email>/Maildir
gives me this:
7366 <email>/Maildir
Which is correct..
The only thing i can think of that's different is that i recently enabled SpamAssassin..
i've cleared caches on my browser, tried a different browser, same thing..
i ran the following command:
echo 'action=tally&value=<domain.com>' >> /usr/local/directadmin/data/task.queue
i made sure that the following is not enabled:
pop_disk_usage_cache
i also tried going to the 'Site Summary/Statistics/Logs' -> Usage Statistics -> Disk Usage -> Update (the little triangle)
None of these has restored correct values..
Is there any other way to refresh these erroneous stats, as they also affect RoundCube?
Has anyone else run into this issue?
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thank You!
