similar to: Dovecot ignoring Quotas

Hi, I'd like to use dovecot+postfix (with Maildir) for several virtual email servers, but one requirement is quota support. I'm aware about the lack of maildirquota support in dovecot, and I found a patch in the "unofficial patches" section which is said to provide maildirquota support to dovecot. How stable is this patch?, is it usable with dovecot 1.0b2?. And, is there

Hi Timo and crew! I'm doing more testing with Dovecot and Maildrop today and have run across some strangeness. It appears as if Maildrop stores updates to the maildirquota file in a way that causes Dovecot to ignore them. In my test scenario, Dovecot just rebuilt my maildirsize file to the following: 0S 86213796 108 After delivering a few messages through Postfix -> Maildrop and have

Hi! I am currently in the process of preparing a migration of our old Courier-based IMAP/POP server setup to a Dovecot-based one. During this process I came across the following problem with the difference Courier and Dovecot handle deleted messages and mail quota.

hi everyone need a few questions answering if possible before i can complete some modifications on my mailserver 1 how do i modify my user_query line in dovecot-sql.conf for quotas 2 is my iterate_query line ok 3 should i use lmtp or lda to deliver the quota warnings in quota-warning.sh my server is using lmtp but i've only seen examples using lda 4 how do i break long lines

Hello guys, Firstly I would like to state that I am fairly new to Dovecot. I have played around with it in the past here and there but mainly with debian packages. I have compiled this version of Dovecot from source, so please go easy with me. Ok now down to my questions: I am having trouble getting Dovecot to 'ignore' the Trash folder when summing up the used quota for a user.

Hello all, I'm trying to get dovecot read three different quota_warnings values directly from ldap. I configured correctly the quota_rule value, know I'm trying to override this values: quota_warning = storage=95%% /usr/local/bin/quota-warning.sh 95 quota_warning2 = storage=80%% /usr/local/bin/quota-warning.sh 80 quota_warning3 = storage=70%% /usr/local/bin/quota-warning.sh 70 reading

Hi, I'm running a postfix/dovecot/ldap setup and it works quite fine. I am now trying to setup a global sieve script to forward all incoming mails to a local user for vacation management (gnarwl). I can't user the vacation extension of the sieve script itself because it is not configurable enough (each user has his vacation message and status stored in LDAP). The problem is that when

It looks like my quota isnt being calculated properly after I started setting quota to a specific folder. The quota in that folder is always starting out at 0, and only new email is being added to the quota. If I remove the maildirsize file, and recalculate, it still starts at 0. Once email arrives in the folder, it gets added to maildirsize. This is with maildirquota, in perhaps a bit of an

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

Hi, i have dovecot 1.0rc12, postfix, RedHat Enterprise Linux ES 4.0 Update 4. IMAP client Thunderbird 1.5.0.7 Only namespace: namespace private { separator = / inbox = yes prefix = location = maildir:~/Maildir/ } When the quota limit is near... more maildirsize 5242880S 0 0 2688058 1 1993336 1 ... if i move the message betweeen foders, dovecot say: quota exceeded. Is this a

Some information about maildir++ that I have read: http://www.inter7.com/courierimap/README.maildirquota.html http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Quota/Maildir When I have to deliver a message with an MDA I can use dovecot-lda. If I have enabled "quota = maildir:User quota" I am pretty sure that in the mailbox on file system I find a file named "maildirsize" maildirsize on top contain

Hey everyone, Currently where I work we use qmail. Every time a message is delivered, qmail seems to walk through the user's entire maildir in order to calculate quota usage. Delivering messages simultaneously to just a few users who are allowed large maildirs (1-2GB) will bring our servers to their knees. Which brings me to dovecot. I use dovecot whereever I can, but haven't yet

Hope maildirquota++ is soon supported, without it, dovecot is useless in my use (mail hosting with maildirquotas). Also QUOTA cabability in dovecot is needed to get to use my webmail plugins that use a001 CAPABILITY to get quota support. Courier imapd supports this. --snippet from quota usage plugin to squirrelmail-- function sqimap_get_quota ($imap_stream, $mailbox) { if

Hi, I'm using Dovecot 2.0.9, and was trying to set up a dictionary process to use an sqlite database for quota management. The wiki page has examples for MySQL and PostgreSQL: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Quota/Dict For sqlite, a trigger needs to be created to get it to work. But I was not sufficiently skilled in sqlite to adapt the PostgreSQL trigger (given on the above URL) for use. Nor

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

Let me start off by saying the initial cause was *not* a Dovecot bug. :) If you have the default namespace "INBOX." (Courier emulation mode from the Wiki) and an actual folder in your ~/Maildir/ with INBOX in the name (~/Maildir/.INBOX.Miami), then Dovecot presents them both to the client as the real Inbox in Thunderbird: Account Inbox (3) Drafts Sent INBOX (3)

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,

Wiki instructions for creating insert trigger for PostgreSQL are wrong http://wiki.dovecot.org/Quota/Dict Calling INSERT on the table from within BEFORE INSERT trigger creates cascading trigger. http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/interactive/trigger-definition.html Instead, one should return NEW record from the trigger, and it will be inserted after trigger execution. --- CREATE OR
