Hello

I think I haven't fully understood the manual, or there is some error that I can't see.

In /usr/local/directadmin/data/users/<USER>/user.conf:

Bash:
#> cat /usr/local/directadmin/data/users/<USER>/user.conf | grep max
max_per_email_send_limit=3000

Despite this, when I go to the account where I want to set the maximum limit, whether I use a number or the MAX marker, it doesn't get fixed, at least in the visual part, although when I come back in, I see that it has reverted to my allowed maximum.

I don't know if this is a mistake on my part, or an error with the theme or something internal to DirectAdmin.
Best regards

As reseller in the account modify tab of this user, check the field "Max limit user can set per email", propably here is the barriere.
edit: and in the admin settings, tab E-mail Settings, "Daily limit per E-mail Account", and "user can set limit per E-mail" checkbox.
 
How to admin, in tab USer -> Modify evo/admin/users/martinez/view/modify I see Max Limit user can set per email 3000 === /usr/local/directadmin/data/users/<USER>/user.conf

The question is to exceed the maximum number of the server for a specific account using the Directadmin documentation, which explains how to do the override.


NOTE: The Per-User user.conf override max_per_email_send_limit can be used to override the limit set in the directadmin.conf for a single user by adding the value to the User's user.conf file. This can be done by editing the file directly, or via the DirectAdmin GUI when viewing the User's details (by clicking Show All Users, then clicking the desired user, and then editing their User details).

This is useful if you have one User you want to allow to set a high per-Email send limit, but not want to allow all DA Users the ability to set a high per-Email send limit.

Acceptable values for max_per_email_send_limit include:

  • blank/empty string: The default: relies on the same setting from the Admin Settings page.
  • -1: overrides to -1, meaning the max value a User can set will match /etc/virtual/user_limit
  • 0: Unlimited (not recommended). Although an E-Mail could have unlimited sends, the send limit cannot exceed the DA User's limit.
  • positive integer: The numerical limit a User would be allowed to set as the max send value for an E-Mail.

It is not about how to configure the limit in the global configuration.
I don't understand English very well, but I think the issue is between the title and the content.

I included that the system recognizes that you can put 3000, but it doesn't save it to show it in the user's front end, although it does show it again when you go back to edit it.

Summary
1. Going above the limit set in the system for a particular user.
