Change An Email Account Quota
You can easily change an email account quota using the cPanel interface.
What is an email quota?
An email quota is the maximum (quota) amount
of disk space allocated to an individual email account. By default, cPanel
creates email accounts with a maximum (quota) of 10Mbs of allowed disk
space. You can change the quota to any amount you need based on your own
personal preferences.
Note:
The quota will not exceed your overall account disk space. For example,
if your account comes with a maximum of 100Mbs, your email account will
not exceed 100Mbs even if you set the quota to "unlimited."
To get started, follow the instructions
below.
1. Login to cPanel.
2. When the page loads, click on the "Email Accounts" link
in the Mail section.
3. Next, find the email account you want to use for a quota change in
the Current Accounts section. View our example (demo@cpx3demo.com) below.
4. Once you have identified the email account you want to use for a
quota change, select "Change Quota" from the Functions drop
down menu.
5. Click on the "Go" button.
6. Next, enter the new quota (in megabytes) in the "New Quota"
text box. The default quota is "10" megabytes. In our example
below we are changing the default quota "10" to a higher value
of "20" megabytes.
Or if you want to set the email account quota to an unlimited number
of megabytes, enter "unlimited" in the "New Quota"
text box.
7. When you have modified the email account quota, click on the "Change"
button.
