Mails on separate HDD

dimensions

Basic Pleskian
I have centos and Plesk 8.3 on an 80GB HDD.

I would like to add another HDD and redirect only emails on this drive.
Is it possible to do this?
 
i think this is no problem

just move /var/qmail/mailnames to your new hdd and do a symbolic link ...
 
Thanx for your rely Danliker

Will that also point plesk to recognise this?
Is it possible to give detailed instructions on this, as I am not sure the commands to use.

Thanking you in advance.
Parag.
 
I would just copy the files over and then mount the extra drive as /var/qmail/mailnames, but both would work. You don't need to point Plesk anywhere, as far as Plesk is concerned nothing has changed.
