dovecot - Jul 2009 - Optimal quota method for SQL

Hi,

I just installed 1.2.0 and I'm gonna set up some quota on my vitual users.

I' ve got dovecot set up as LDA, and currently I'm using the dict-mysql
method described for 1.2.0, but it's not really working at all.

Am I correct in assuming that with this method I can define the quota
limit in my dict (sql field)?

This is my current config:

dict {
  quotadict = mysql:/etc/dovecot-dict-sql.conf
}

plugin {
  quota = dict:user::proxy::quotadict
  quota_rule = *:storage=0:messages=0
}

protocol lda {
mail_plugins = quota
.....
}

I want quota to be disabled unless otherwise specified in my SQL database.

dovecot -n? Log output with mail_debug=yes when saving messages?

Quota limits are defined in quota_rule setting. You can have your  
userdb override the global one.

Looks ok. This should track quota, but have any limits for it. For  
users that need quota just override the quota_rule.

I suppose you're using userdb sql?
