At work we are using Kerio Connect running on a Mac Mini/OSX for our email. Every month I archive all mail to a MySQL database using MailSteward Pro, but I also use Kerio Connect’s built in backup capability to do incremental and once-weekly full backups. The backups can take up quite a bit of hard disk space, and it is not dead simple to check on space being consumed:

Open a Terminal window.

Enable SuperUser user by typing sudo su – root and entering your password.

Navigate to usr/local/kerio/mailserver/store/backup. I am not a Unix whiz, I use these commands to get around:

pwd to show the working directory

cd .. to move up a level

cd <directory name> to move into a directory

ls to show what is in a directory

ls -l to get more details about what is in a directory

du -hs to show the size of a current directory
