I've found what I think is an inconsistency in the Maildir quota implementation. According to the Maildir++ quota specification at: http://www.inter7.com/courierimap/README.maildirquota.html Maildir++ quota can be specified as maximum size, or maximum number of messages, or even both. The size specification is supposed to be in bytes. So I could use '10000000S' to set a quota of

When is the maildir quota usages recalculated and written to the second line of the "maildirsize" file? I'm using 1.1.4, and I reset the quotas for my users by just taking the first line of their maildirsize file and deleting the rest. -- Ralf Hildebrandt (Ralf.Hildebrandt at charite.de) snickebo at charite.de Postfix - Einrichtung, Betrieb und Wartung Tel. +49

I found a problem with maildir++ quota. When dovecot creates maildirsize file, it counts quota wrong. This is, how I reproduce a situation on version 1.2.0: First, I remove maildirsize file: # cd /var/mail/test # rm -f maildirsize # ls -la total 32 drwx--S--- 5 mbox mbox 4096 Jul 12 20:45 . drwxrwsr-x 3 root mbox 4096 Jul 12 20:39 .. drwx--S--- 2 mbox mbox 4096 Jul 9 20:45 cur -rw------- 1 mbox

Hi folks. I was doing some testing this morning and realized Dovecot RC2 isn't fully compliant with the maildir++ specification. Most notably, it appears that Dovecot isn't creating a "maildirfolder" file (0 byte length) in folders it creates. >From http://www.inter7.com/courierimap/README.maildirquota.html "Within each subdirectory there's an empty file,

Hi to all, I am semi-new to the dovecot system, but i like it very much for the versatility of all the system. I have a problem: i am migrating my servers from postfix with vda patch + courier imap to dovecot. All works fine, except for one thing: i use Maildir++ format, but i don't know how to make the file maildirsize into the home of the users. This file is needed by me becouse i have a

Hi, it looks like there is a bug (in dovecot or in my config) with quota on maildir mailboxes when accessed via POP3. The maildirsize is not created when not already present (even after a DELE + QUIT command). The quota limit (the first line of maildirsize) is not updated if values are not in sync with those in the database. If maildirsize is present, DELE commands are correctly reported in

Using maildir++ with LDA and POP/IMAP we have been seeing intermittant maildirsize corruption. Where an operation will be prepended by a handful of ASCI null characters ^@^@.

Hi there, I'm using postgres as a userdb for dovecot. I'm am trying to get the quota plugin to work. I have a column in my table that returns the quota in KB. I am using the postgres expression "('maildir:storage=' || mailstore_control.mailbox.quota) AS quota" as recommended in the manuals. This expression is NULL to start with, which I take to mean unlimited

According to [1], Trash is a reserverd folder name. When moving a message to it, maildirsize should be update with a negative byte count. If I move a message from any folder to Trash, maildirsize gets two lines, one positive and one negative. The problem is that a user can't move messages to Trash while being overquota because the positive entry goes before the negative. I'm using

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

Hello folks - I'm running dovecot on top of qmail/vpopmail/mysql, serving up about 2500 mailboxes. Everything is running very smooth and fast.... I recently upgraded dovecot to 1.1, so I'm trying to implement some extra features like IMAP quotas. I'm using the sql passdb, with the following config: driver = mysql connect = host=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock user=username

When using maildir++ quotas, if you delete an IMAP folder, the maildirsize file should get updated so that it subtracts the size of the messages that were contained in the deleted IMAP folder. However Dovecot is not doing this, resulting in Dovecot showing an incorrect quota value until the next time the maildirsize file is rebuilt. Bill

Hi. It looks like Beta 7 is treating a zero quota in maildirsize as a literal quota value. The maildir++ specification says a zero quota means unlimited. Steve

Hi all, i am asking myself how quota is done with dbox in a virtual setup with having quotas in sql dove 1.1.1 says quota maildir: No maildir storages, ignoring quota lda means quota maildir: No maildir storages, ignoring quota which is right i dont wanna use dict , i only wanna use the qutoas out of sql crated by postfixadmin has someone used this ever ? -- Best Regards MfG Robert

Hello, we're operating dovecot on a small server. Some years ago, we migrated from courier IMAP to dovecot. Therefore, we defined our default Namespace "inbox" with prefix "INBOX." to have this compatible. I found this in some migration docs those days. Generally, everything worked as expected. Our only namespace is configured like this: namespace inbox { separator = .

We use Maildir++ quota, with the rules taken from our LDAP backend. We also have an old expunge script that's not quota-aware; it removes old messages from the maildir by simply deleting the files. Sometimes, a mailbox is over quota before the script runs, but well under quota after the old messages are deleted. This change does not seem to be picked up, however: When I try to deliver a new

Hi, I'd like the vpopmail user database to return the quota settings for users, instead of having to rely on the validity of the maildirsize files. It doesn't look like this is currently possible. Would simply adding a auth_stream_reply_add call for "quota" with a suitable value in vpopmail_lookup be sufficient to make this work? (the quota can be read from the pw_shell

Hi List, I recently upgraded to Dovecot 1.1.3 on FreeBSD and got into trouble over the quotas. We implemented per-user quotas using plugin { quota = maildir } and protocol lda { mail_plugins = quota } We use a passwd-file userdb with extra fields, which used to be quota=maildir:storage:<bytes> which I changed to quota_rule=*:bytes:<bytes> What

Aloha, I've searched the list and have found no similar reports, so I'm asking here. We have 3 RH5.1 boxes running the stock Postfix 2.3.3, but due to issues with the stock Dovecot 1.0rc15, Redhat supplied us with the version of Dovecot 1.0.7 that will be in Redhat 5.2. The mail store is automounted per-user from a Sun box via NFS. We were using it with no problems until last Friday,
