similar to: email message size limit

Hi, is there any way, based on userdb/passwdb attribute, how to postpone an email delivery? The purpose is, I need to freeze an account (Maildir++) for a few minutes and new email must not be delivered. But emails must be delivered when account is unfrozen. I found few things about Postfix filters, but I'm not sure it's a good way. Thank you, Milo

Hi, I am trying to deal with the problem, that under regular mbox format a path can lead to either a file or a directory, but not both, while under IMAP, a path is usually both, a message folder containing subfolders. I found dovecot's approach to this problem, the Maildir++ layout described under http://wiki2.dovecot.org/MboxChildFolders , and was astonished to see, what problems come with

Whilst documenting LAYOUT=maildir++ under dbox, that got me thinking: Can we specify :LAYOUT=maildir++ with mbox? If I have it right, this should then remove the problem of not being able to have messages and mail subfolders in the same mail folder. So for example if we had mail location specified as: mail_location = mbox:~/mail:LAYOUT=maildir++ we would have files: ~/mail/inbox - file

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

My mail agent is postfix and by default it imposes the INBOX size of 50 meg. I would like my imap mail clients (I'm using Thunderbird) to "see" this and warn me when my inbox fills up. I tried doing it with the old quota system but wasn't successful. With the new quota rule system it looks like per-mailbox quotas are possible, however when I do this: quota = maildir

I have this default configuration [0], when use the userdb_mail to point to the mdbox location, the inbox subfolders show differently in a firebird client. So I decided to copy the whole default mail_location into the userdb_mail configuration [2]. But then I get errors [3]. Should I change the namespace configuration here, how? My default namespaces are inbox and 4archives [0] [@ ]#

With this setting, all folders are empty, I guess understandable, because the mdbox has its own indexes stored locally with it. Does not explain though why inbox is empty.

Hi, I've been bitten by an issue running Squirrelmail on top of Dovecot using Maildir++ quotas. Having configured these quotas in Dovecot, I notice that Dovecot appears not to exclude the 'Trash' folder from its quota calculation (which it should do, according to the Maildir++ spec). Unfortunately this breaks Squirrelmail if I try to delete a message from a close-to-quota

Hi, We are currently moving from linuxconf/dovecot to a dovecot setup with sql support, the problem we currently facing is having a message sent to a aliase delivered to the user email inbox with dovecot-lda, i have created cedrict at mail.vdl and a alias test at mail.vdl, when i send to cedrict at mail.vdl the message is included in the user inbox file, but when i send to test at mail.vdl

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

Yes, I have still inbox mbox format because I have sendmail delivering there.

Hello, I track dovecot m-list, and i wan't migrate to dovecot, but now dovecot has no maildir++ quota in public release(beta etc). Without quota support dovcot not a solution for me. Please if dovecot have a release plan, post to me. Thanks. Udv.: Willy -- PGP GNUPG/1.0 ID = 5BFA0D36 Kupor Laszlo Attila <willy at dunanet.hu> Key fingerprint = 3F68 9483 5B65 8E2F CD30 5326 50F9

I'm using Courier-imap and gonna change to dovecot. Courier-imap supports quota over 2GB size. Does dovecot's Maildir++ quota support over 2GB?

Hi! I'm testing 1.1, and have some questions. (How) Can I override the default maildir++ quota setting (I mean quota_rule) in the userdb, so that one won't have quota at all. Right now I'm setting a very high limit in the userdb with quota_rule=*:storage=99G in the extra field. Prior to 1.1 I was using 1.0 and had fs quota. I've had set up dovecot so that the indexes were

Hi everyone. I'm confused about LAYOUT=fs... Does using LAYOUT=fs breaks maildir++ quota, if I use this quota scheme? What are the advantages anyway of using LAYOUT=fs vs LAYOUT=maildir++ ? (it's not important in my case if users can't create folders with dots '.') Thanks in advance, Ezequiel

Using a quota rule like "quota_rule = *:backend=1073741824S" (I'm testing it statically but the value is on LDAP) I receive an an error: Fatal: IMAP(...): Quota root QUOTA: Invalid rule: *:backend=1073741824S Accordingly with the wiki page http://wiki.dovecot.org/Quota/New "Backend-specific configuration currently is used only with Maildir++ quota backend.

Hello list, After upgrade to dovecot version 1.2.6 I have noticed some quota malfunctions(users become often overquota).
