CuddapahOnline does not guarantee that our tips will work in all cases. Use at your own risk.

1. Open Workgroup Manager
2. Select the user for whom you want to fix mail quota -> Mail
3. For Mail Quota, enter in MB. For example, to allocate 1 GB, enter 1024
4. Click Save. Exit Workgroup manager
5. Send an Email to the user. That should fix it
6. To verify, open Server Admin -> Mail -> Maintenance -> Accounts
7. Another way to verify:
sudo -u cyrusimap /usr/bin/cyrus/bin/cyrus-quota -f

Note: If you allocate 2 GB (2048MB), Server Admin will show as -2048 MB. This might be a bug in Server Admin.
