dovecot - Aug 2006 - warn before overquota

Hi,

is there an implementation to warn the user before his storage capacity
exceeded?

Regards

No, and I'm not sure how that even should work. If you used dovecot's
LDA I suppose it could at some point write you a warning mail, but if
you don't use it then you'd need some cron job to check for those.

I suppose it could also be done at imap/pop3 login, but that's a bit
kludgy and you might already be over quota by then. If you want that,
you could modify mail_executable to run a script which does that for
yourself.

I guess the proper way to implement this would be with a plugin. I've no
plans to do that in near future though..

I'd say that's the job of the MTA if you're not using Dovecot LDA...
At
least Exim does that. But it would be nice to have a way doing it if
you're using dovecot lda as well...
