I spent a long while trying to get quota warnings working with v1.1.3 on Centos5
before almost giving up.
I configured everything as per the instructions on the Quota wiki page however
no warning emails were being generated when I tested & no debug messages in
the log to give any clues as to what I was doing wrong.
It turns out I wasn't doing anything wrong, but just misunderstanding at
what point the warnings are generated. The warning email appears to only be
generated when a message is moved from one folder to another. I was expecting
the warning to be generated when the INBOX was simply opened & viewed!
Is this how it is supposed to work? If so, perhaps a note of clarification could
be added to the wiki page?

Are you saying you didn't even test by sending yourself a test message? -- Best regards, Charles
