Hi All, I keep going round in circles with this. I have quotas up and running but would like to add a couple of per user exceptions but can't figure out how to do it! I am using Open Xchange community edition on top of dovecot and tha tis showing the 200MB limit, if I change it in the dovecot.conf the change is reflected in open xchange, but can't figure out how to change for 1 user. I believe I need to add to a passwd file, but I have added to that and nothing has changed. # dovecot -n # 1.2.15: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.32-5-686 i686 Debian 6.0.5 log_timestamp: %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S protocols: imap imaps pop3 pop3s ssl_cert_file: /etc/ssl/certs/postfix.pem ssl_key_file: /etc/ssl/private/postfix.key login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable(default): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(imap): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(pop3): /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3-login mail_privileged_group: mail mail_location: maildir:~/mail:LAYOUT=fs:INBOX=~/mail/ mbox_write_locks: fcntl dotlock mail_executable(default): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap mail_executable(imap): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap mail_executable(pop3): /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3 mail_plugins(default): quota imap_quota mail_plugins(imap): quota imap_quota mail_plugins(pop3): quota mail_plugin_dir(default): /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/imap mail_plugin_dir(imap): /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/imap mail_plugin_dir(pop3): /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/pop3 lda: mail_plugins: quota auth default: mechanisms: plain login passdb: driver: pam userdb: driver: passwd socket: type: listen client: path: /var/spool/postfix/private/auth mode: 432 user: postfix group: postfix plugin: quota: maildir:user quota quota_rule: *:storage=200M quota_rule2: Trash:storage=10%% quota_rule2: SPAM:ignore quota_warning: storage=95%% /usr/local/bin/quota-warning.sh 95 quota_warning2: storage=80%% /usr/local/bin/quota-warning.sh 80 quota_exceeded_message: Quota exceeded, Please delete some emails Any help gratefully received Dave _________________________________________ This email has been scanned for malicious content. _________________________________________

Also, watch your quota_rule numbering. You have 2 rules with the same number (quota_rule2 for Trash and SPAM). In the passwd file, you are replacing the rule specified by number (no number technically being the first). Jack
