similar to: maildir quota management

Is there a way to return a per user dirsize quota from a passdb sql lookup? If so, what is the syntax? maybe "select quota as userdb_quota"? ..and in mysql table, quota column would be: "quota=dirsize:storage=10240" ? I'm using mbox, with /etc/passwd userdb, and mysql passdb. Thanks, Ken -- Ken Anderson Pacific.Net

Hi, I'm running RC19 on a Solaris 10 SPARC box. It seems that whenever I open an e-mail in any folder via IMAP, dovecot appears to scan every other folder in the Maildir. A truss reveals that it is lstat-ing every e-mail in every directory. I'm sorry I am sending only a fragment of the truss, it's really too long... but is this behaviour expected? Cheers, Tan Shao Yi

I noticed that the dirsize backend for quota didn't support any rules and figured it should be easy enough to add ``ignore'' at least. Using mbox storage and only tested with that, but it seems to work as expected for the time being. I'm attaching a relatively small patch for quota-dirsize.c against dovecot-1.1.18 just in case anyone's interested. Best Regards, Thanos

Our current virtual mailbox configuration is not compatible with one of the assertions in the dovecot quota plugin's assertions in quota-dirsize.c. I believe the assertion is incorrect, but I would also be happy if I could get the same result with a better configuration setting. Here is a sample passdb entry which causes the quota assertion to fail: test at

(Dovecot 2.2-ee) We have a weird quota requirement, we have file storage that we manage through our own APIs but want that usage to come out of the user's mail quota. The usage is in a maildirsize like file uncreatively called filestoresize in the user's maildir. In the past we've been doing this by modifying the quota plugin and re-compiling, but it seems like it should be

hello, We have configured the quota enforcement folowing the link (http://wiki.dovecot.org/Quota) but we note that the global quota limitation configuration in dovecot.conf works well but not the ldap users configuration limit. For example in the casee below, we have tried to limit quota usage for some users to 1Gb but only the global quota limitation appear in the user quota. please find below

Hi, (dovecot latest vers) i have lda deliver up with quota and sql, but it seems that deliver simply ignores it, normally it should bounce the message deliver(tester at example.de): Feb 13 15:31:32 Info: auth input: gid=1001 deliver(tester at example.de): Feb 13 15:31:32 Info: auth input: quota=dirsize:storage=3072000 deliver(tester at example.de): Feb 13 15:31:32 Info: Home dir not found:

Hi, all. Does mbox format support quota? I got this error in log file: dovecot: May 18 02:10:36 Error: POP3(www at a.cn): Unknown quota backend: storage=10240 How can i solved it?

Hie folks, Does anyone have any experiences using dovecot + per user quota + ldap? I've configured my settings as this example: # quotaStorage must be in the format mentioned above # For example: dirsize:storage=10240 user_attrs = uid,homeDirectory,,,uidNumber,gidNumber,quotaStorage=quota But, Dovecot isn't creating maildirsize file. Any guesses? PS: I've

Hi All, I've read a bit about this but don't really see a full solution anywhere. Has anyone actually got a good fix for this? Telling a user they are over quota then not allowing them to delete anything does seem the height of perversion. =) Question is - is this even a problem for the IMAP server? Or should the MUA be detecting over quota problems and then issuing the right

I have the following define... define puppet::module_dir { if $name { include puppet file { "${puppetdir}/modules/${name}": ensure => directory, mode => 0755, purge => true, recurse => true, } } } I call it like so: puppet::module_dir { "main" } puppet::module_dir

Hello, I've been trying to set up dovecot 2.0.15, everything seems to work pretty well except for the quota feature. I would like to set a quota limit only for the Inbox folder. I configured two namespaces, according to some posts from Timo Sirainen (http://dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2006-July/014530.html) & (http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2011-January/056131.html) but I

Hello, everyone! Is it possible to "hide" mailbox from the IMAP clients, so as to prevent any user from subscribing to the some folders? My storages are "mbox maildir". For example, to hide the directory where the personal Sieve scripts are stored or etc. =kostik

Hi, all. I have OpenLDAP(+qmail.schema), Dovecot, Postfix installed on RHEL 5.1 (x86_64), and they works fine with mbox format. The problem is if i set 'mailQuota=0' in LDAP, postfix can't send mail to recipient user. But it works fine with 'mailQuota != 0', such as '10240'(10M). What's wrong with my mail server setting? How can i solved this issue? Thanks very

I'm having trouble getting the quota plugin to work with deliver. The quota in the database is not getting set. I am using dovecot-1.0-rc15. This server is not yet in production. Some values below are because I'm trying to test with the simplest possible case, and some because it's reading from a different database. Also, I noticed that "dovecot -n" doesn't display any

Hi, I've been trying to get dirsize quotas to work properly with 1.0rc19 and Dovecot consistently crashes when attempting to do file copies once a user is over quota. Dovecot works fine for us for regular mbox based IMAP, but as soon as I add the following two entries in their respective locations in dovecot.conf: mail_plugins = quota imap_quota (in the imap{} section) quota =

Hello to all, That is my situation: I am trying to use dovecot as LDA with postfix, mysql e postfixadmin. So, all the users are stored in mysql, with quota password and all other things.

That is my dovecot.conf (dovecot version 1.1.3 on
