I have a user with a very large mailbox, and several large PST files he's accumulated along the way. To make this easier for him we had created a second account on his domain with 'archive' added to the username, and stored all of the PST mail there. This worked well, and allowed us to share the folders to his main account.

 

Now, this SmarterMail server is set up on an SSD drive and is now running out of space due to the amount of mail that came out of these PST files. As such, we'd hoped we might be able to move the data to his much larger non-SSD drive, and then simply edit the configuration for the user to point at the new location. This didn't work out as we'd hoped, and it looks like we can only modify the data storage location of domains themselves. 

 

To resolve this issue we've elected to create a second domain like domainarchive.com on the SmarterMail server, modify its data storage location to point at the non-SSD drive, and then move the archived data into this location instead. The only issues with this solution are the inability to share folders between domains, meaning the end user will need to access two different accounts depending on the age of the mail they're looking for. 

 

I'd like to submit this idea to allow the same XML file change for user storage locations as well. Would anyone else be interested in a feature like this?
