dovecot - Dec 2009 - Quota with Dict + SQL not updating

Hello all,

I have a Dovecot server deployed with a MySQL back end.

If the user logs in and there is no quota set for them in table 'quota',
the
system will automatically inset a line with their username and current 
messages/storage.

However after this it fails to update the information when to reflect new 
messages coming to their inbox after the original insert of the information.

It will only update the information when a user deletes a message.

Why is it not updating this information every time their mail is checked with 
IMAP?

Cheers,

Michael

Sounds like your are not using Dovecot's LDA for storing incoming mails.
Or you have forgotten to activate the quota pluging in the protocol lda
section.

Because the user checks only the mailboxes, but doesn't add/delete messages.

Please show your dovecot -n output. If it does not contain 'lda:'
output, please paste additional the contents of your protocol lda {?}
section (without comments).
