Mailbox storage limits via the xneelo Control Panel

The information in this article is related to the new xneelo Control Panel.
If you are still using konsoleH, refer to this article.

Large volumes of mail and large mails affect the performance of your mailbox and make viewing mail online via Webmail cumbersome. Follow the steps to limit the maximum email message size of incoming mail according to your needs.

Steps

  • 1
    Log in to the xneelo Control Panel.    
  • 2
    Select a Product from the side menu.
  • 3
    Click on the domain name.
  • 4
    Scroll down to Mail tools and select Mail Admin. 
  • 5
    The Mail Admin page displays all mailboxes and aliases for your domain.
  • 6
    Click on the 3 dots menu in line with the relevant mailbox.
  • 7
    Select incoming email size limit and adjust according to your needs using the dropdown arrow.
  • 8
    Click Save.

What happens next

In future, any attempt to accept an email bigger than the message size limit on a mailbox will fail and the email will bounce back to the sender.

Assist Note

There is no disk space limit on a per mailbox basis, but rather a limit on the disk space of each hosting account, including all email and web files.

Over-usage charges will be billed for the extra disk space used.

The allocated disk space (storage) varies according to the hosting account type.
