Hi,
I am using dovecot deliver as lda for sendmail. My problem is that when
a user account is over quota, deliver program sends message in the logs,
but the message is not bounced back to sender informing that their is
disk quota problem at the recipient side. Further message remains in the
mail queue. Details are below. Plz suggest how to figure out the problems:
1. Message should be removed from queue if quota is exceeded
2. Sender should get a proper response.
Regards
-Azher

You're using filesystem quota I guess? If you're also using maildir, that won't work if your control files are in quota partition.

Hi Timo,
Thnx for quick suggestions, however i am still in trouble. I am using FS
Quota and mbox. After looking at the Quota/FS, I changed the
mail_location to below.
Few of my dovecot.conf settings are:
mail_location =
mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/home/%u/mail/INBOX:INDEX=/var/mail/indexes/%u
protocol lda {
# Address to use when sending rejection mails.
postmaster_address = postmaster at localhost
mail_plugins = quota
}
Plz suggest what to do next ......
Regards
