    Hi,
    Delegated admin is not able to view Mailbox Quota under Monitor > ServerStatistics

      Since it is a by-pass solution on the community edition, it doesn’t allow a full administrative privileges!

      However, if you ever find a work around- plz share. 🙂

    Thank you Rumi – this made my day 🙂

    I was starting programming my own admin in php, but this is a much more elegant solution.
