Email server - Disk quota sizes - suggestions?
- by Ian H
Working out a new server for an agency of 200 Employees - with approx 240 email accounts.
Internally I'm arguing with myself over the amount of drive space to allocate to each user for the disk quota, I'm just looking for suggestions.
Once i have a quota size decided, it will define the solution for storage.
I've had everything from 4 GB per account ( which i feel is being generous ) down to 500 Mb ( with is rather restrictive in today's day and age. )
Thing is 4 GB per acocunt is just under 1 TB of allocated storage for email alone.
Does anyone follow a "rule of thumb" or have thoughts on this?
thanks in advance
