cyrus-imap cannot creat mailbox
Hello,
I have a terrible problem at the moment because I cannot create any more mail accounts.
I am currently running cyrus-imapd-2.0.17. imap4 However I cannot create any more mailboxes.
I receive the following error when trying to create new accounts ...
Sep 15 19:05:16 sparrow imapd[7843]: [ID 721126 local6.error] IOERROR: creating directory /var/spool/cyrus1/user/jsn
Sep 15 19:05:16 sparrow imapd[7843]: [ID 721126 local6.error] IOERROR: creating directory /var/spool/cyrus1/user/jta
Sep 15 19:05:16 sparrow imapd[7843]: [ID 721126 local6.error] IOERROR: creating directory /var/spool/cyrus1/user/jva
Sep 15 19:05:16 sparrow imapd[7843]: [ID 721126 local6.error] IOERROR: creating directory /var/spool/cyrus1/user/jwa
Sep 15 19:05:16 sparrow imapd[7843]: [ID 721126 local6.error] IOERROR: creating directory /var/spool/cyrus1/user/jwa
.... and so it goes on
I currently have 32,765 directories in this account and it seems like perhaps I have reached the quota. Is there anyway to stop this?
Your comments are much appreciated

More likely "directory" than "account"... In which case "what filesystem type" and "what flavour of unix" might be the relevant questions...?

I don't think I understand what you mean by "this account". Could you elaborate, or better yet, show me the cyradm command you are using to create the mailbox?
