Default Re: [courier-users] How maildrop averages the maildir file system

Hi Sam, thanks for your answer!

I just use maildrop/courier to deliver mail today, but I used procmail in p=
ast,
so as I migrate to maildrop, those mail could still be in user maildir. I u=
se
Horde Webmail with imapproxy.

One thing that I don't understand is, why maildirmake -q say that I have on=
ly 7
MB while the maildrop surely delivered more than 100MB ( today have 5 GB ).=
How
could I solve this problem? I only have the maildrop/courier as MDA. Should=
I
change the second line in maildirsize manually to reflect the right value?

Thanks again,

Luiz
