i use vpopmail 5.4.7. we can set default quota for every newly created user by setting up a certain value in /home/vpopmail/etc/vlimits.default. For example, i want every new user to have only 5Mb quota and maximum 500 messages in their inbox. here what to put in vlimits.default:

default_quota 5242880
default_maxmsgcount 500

now everytime we add a new user without -q option, the new user will have 5Mb quota. we can also set quota for an entire domain in vlimits.default, actually the file is self-explanatory…:)
