Hi, We've a strange quota behavior on our dovecot servers. It seems that it's somehow doubling the real used storage (or could be something like twice the inbox size + size of other folders, hard to know for sure). It was initial setup with the maildir++ system. Now it's been configured with dict and mysql table but the result is the same. Dovecot version : 2.1.7 (from squeeze-backports). Maildir format is used As example, let's use mailbox at domain.com. If I check in the quota table, I'll find : - size : 697151354 - number of files : 1510 Now if I check the Maildir folder on the filesystem, I'll find : - size : 347960000 - number of files : 824 (using find . -type f|grep -v dovecot|wc -l, not 100% accurate) Another mail box Reported by dovecot : 503446986 1081 Filesystem : 248592000 598 Does anyone has an idea of what could be possibly wrong. We've checked & double-checked everything and nothing seems to be wrong (no dsync used). -- Regards S?bastien

What happens to the "doveadm quota get" output after LMTP/LDA delivery of a mail with a fixed-size, let's say one mail with 1 MB? How does your setup look like? Mailbox+Director Proxy or only Mailboxes? What is your doveconf -n output of mailbox (and possibly director)? Regards Daniel -- https://plus.google.com/103021802792276734820
