If you mean being able to set it for an individual user, I don't think there is a way, but what we do is create new usergroups by copying Registered Users, and set Maximum Stored Messages for that group to a higher value. Then add that group as a secondary usergroup to each user whose mailbox size you want to increase.

I am under a spam attack. Can I block a range of IP addresses ? Where ? I did it in cpanel, but does VB have a better way ?

There is a place to add blocked ips in the options, but I don't think it's better than using cpanel. If you can block them before they access any vbulletin script, then they're not using any of your resources.

How do I approve new users once moderation is required for registration? Right now I am going into Admin panel but that is klutzy.

I don't think there is any other way, but you might look for a mod that adds a more convenient control. I don't know of any specific one offhand.

Sorry, I don't have any idea what's causing the problem with the left panel. I would have thought it should stay a fixed size.
