Hello, I am configuring quota plugin per user, not for the whole system. As documentation says (http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Quota), I have to add "quota" to the global mail_plugins and "imap_quota" to mail_plugins for protocol imap, but I don't know how to configure this in a userdb. I'm using a passwd-file in the way:

Hi, I have a director farm running in front of dovecot pop/imap servers. For a reason, one of my backend servers have been down, so poolmon disables it in director servers and users corresponding to it has been sent to other servers. Until this, no problem.

Hi, I'm configuring a farm of dovecot proxies redirecting users to backend servers. The decision of which backend server is used for a user is based in its ldap account information.
