It shouldn't be that bad really though. Especially since you can nest the filesystems. So, I believe you should be able to do something like: zfs create home/username/mail zfs set mountpoint=/var/mail/username Perhaps I'm just naieve, but other than the other poster's suggestion to switch mail software, immediate solutions don't come to mind. With zfs new filesystems are so cheap it is unbelievable. If managing so many filesystems seems unwieldly, then please, by all means post about it in detail! Improving the management and user experience is something SUN (as well as the community) appears to be very interested in. >From everything I've read, because of the "cheapness" of filesystems, there >doesn't seem to be any interest within SUN to support traditional quotas on >ZFS. -Shawn This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
