Was reviewing the new mail setup stuff (http://www.psoft.net/HSdocumentation/user/mailboxes.html) and read the following:
"Mailbox quota defines how many MB of mail you can store in your mailbox. You can't store more than allowed by the mailbox quota. It is not included into the site disk space quota. If your hosting plan allows, you can increase the initial free mailbox quota."
Don't understand the "It is not included in the site disk space quota." Am I to understand that if a customer gets 100MB of storage and, say, 5 mail accounts, each with 10MB as default, then that customer effectively gets 150MB of total storage (100 + (5mail * 10mb each))?
Then, just a bit after that, the doc'n says this (in ref to a customer increasing his mailbox storage quota):
"From this moment on, you will be charged for the difference between this new amount and the free amount your hosting plan grants. This charge will be added to the recurrent fee at the beginning of each billing period."
My accounts are set up with summary storage, which as I understand it, allocates a given amount of storage to the account plan, which the account owner can then reallocate however he sees fit. Thus, if he had 100MB, he could have no Webspace but could put all 100MB into a mail account by setting the mail quota to 100MB.
Is summary storage no longer an option and customers can no longer allocate whatever storage they want to their email provided it's within their plan's total storage limit?
Thx
Charles
