Last modified on $Date$ Whenever a user tries to print a document, if he is over his print quota, then the job is refused. Depending on PyKota's configuration, especially the mailto option, he and/or the administrator may eventually receive an email message which explains the situation and invites him to solve the problem before being allowed to print again. However this may not be sufficient, and you may want to warn users who have reached their print quota at regular intervals, like every day, for example in a cron job. This may be useful if the user has reached his print quota, and have received an email message telling him so, but then he doesn't print for some days and may forget to solve the problem, by buying more paper for example. The warnpykota command was written with this in mind. If you put this command in your crontab, launching it for example every day, then you'll be sure that all your users who are above their print quota will not forget it ! At the very least, try to make your best to disallow ordinary users to be able to launch this command, since malicious users could fill other users mailboxes by repeatedly running warnpykota : each user above quota would receive multiple email messages, and possibly the administrator too !
