Hello,
Some of our users use a dedicated archive mailbox, so we've setup an archive
namespace for it, which is by default disabled.
This namespace has its own quota which is defined by quota2* settings.
Every time a user without archive authenticates, dsync kicks in, lmtp delivers a
message or imap is used an Error message gets recorded: "imap(user1):
Error: quota: Unknown namespace: Archive/"
This happens about 441,756 times per hour - putting heavy load on the whole
logging chain.
In my opinion it makes sense suppressing quota error messages for disabled
namespaces or flag it as debug messages.
I'm thankful for every solution for this problem!
Best regards
Jens
Environment:
Dovecot Version 2.2.27 (c0f36b0)
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.3 (Maipo)
Linux 3.10.0-514.6.1.el7.x86_64
doveadm user '*' |wc -l: 15946
Relevant configuration sections:
namespace archive {
disabled = yes
hidden = no
inbox = no
list = yes
location = maildir:/archive/%h/Archive
mailbox "Auto Archive" {
auto = subscribe
special_use = \Archive
}
prefix = Archive/
separator = /
subscriptions = no
type = private
}
The archive gets enabled by the authentication backend:
user_attrs =
ou=home=/mail/%U$/%u,=uid=500,=gid=500,quota=quota_rule=*:bytes=%{ldap:quota},archiveDisabled=namespace/archive/disabled=%{ldap:archiveDisabled:yes}
To ensure that the archive storage stays within sane boundaries there is a quota
defined for the archive:
plugin {
acl = vfile:/etc/dovecot/global-acls:cache_secs=300
acl_shared_dict = proxy::acl
mail_replica = tcp:mail-replica:12345
quota = maildir:User_quota
quota2 = maildir:Archive_quota:ns=Archive/
quota2_rule = *:storage=10G
quota_rule = *:storage=2G
quota_rule2 = INBOX/Trash:storage=+10%%
quota_warning = storage=95%% quota-warning 95 %u
quota_warning2 = storage=90%% quota-warning 90 %u
quota_warning3 = storage=85%% quota-warning 85 %u
quota_warning4 = storage=80%% quota-warning 80 %u
sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve
sieve_dir = ~/sieve
}
