Re: Mail default directory on another hard drive in iredMail

You can do it this way:

1) Install iRedMail by following our installation guide.
2) Move all databases to second hard disk, then create symbol link to the original database directory.
3) Move all mailboxes (default is /var/vmail) to second hard disk, then create symbol link to the original mailbox directory.
