Hello Mike,

  Thank you for your answer, as im stuck on this point and lost with my 
users,
  beside none answering this question on the list!

  No when I enabled quota I did the configuration on /usr
  shall i enable it on /var to?
  then how to make the sendmail or the shell reads the user quota on his 
home directory and
  his /var/mail/$username ?

  When i check my webmin, the section of "read user mail" will give you the 
total amount
  of user useage (including /var/mail/$userInbox)
  but if i go to quota in my webmin it will show only home directory quota.
  I'm telling you this information, not because i care about webmin, but i 
ment to say
  if webmin can read the home directory quota and add to it the 
/var/mail/$userInbox size
  then for sure I can do it some how?

  Please Advise.

  Marwan
