# What do I need this for?
# A way to manage the problems related to the mailbox when it is full, on a Ubuntu system.
# I match the mailbox_size_limit in /etc/postfix/main.cf with the current size of the mailbox.
# When the mailbox is close to be full, this script will empty it. Supports Performance Data.
# ------------------------------------------ #
# Usage: 
# 1. 
#    Edit sudoers (visudo) and add:
#    nrpe ALL=(ALL:ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_mailbox_size.sh
#    where nrpe is the user running nrpe/nagios
# 2. 
#    Add to nrpe.cfg:
#    command[check_mailbox_size]=sudo /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_mailbox_size.sh mailboxName
# 3.
#    chown nrpe:nrpe /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_mailbox_size.sh
#    chmod ug=rwx,o= /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_mailbox_size.sh
