Is it true that if a user reaches quota limit he isn't be able to delete his messages to free his mailbox space?

You can see how to do it in wiki.dovecot.org/MailLocation Aaaaaagur. -- Joseba Torre. CIDIR Bizkaia. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Hello... You should probably have a look at this: wiki.dovecot.org/Quota/Maildir?highlight=(ignore)|(trash) A "delete" operation in many clients means that the mail is copied to Trash mailbox and then expunged from the original mailbox. This means that the delete operation will fail if user is already over quota. If you wish to make this work, you can use ignore setting, which doesn't count the quota at all for the given mailbox: Tobias Mauro Sanna wrote:> Is it true that if a user reaches quota limit he isn't be able to delete > his messages to free his mailbox space? > >

You havn't said which type of quota, if you use filesystem quotas, you can easily reach this point, if people use the trashbox stuff. This can be avoided, if you also turn on maildir_copy_with_hardlinks = yes However, this may has other problems.
