[Dovecot] deleteing e-Mail, quota and dovecot

[Götz Reinicke]

Hi,

we run a RHEL4 E-Mail-Server with dovecot-0.99.11-2.EL4.1. we use mbox 
and most users use imap. So I have set quota for the devices where the 
user mailfiles are saved.

No I'm getting the situation, that users exide there quota but yet not 
the grace limit and the user isn't able to delete messages.

e.g. the the soft limit is 100 MB, the hard limit is 110 MB. So there 
should be some space to delete unneeded emails.

Am i thinking the wrong way? Or how should the quota-system work in this 
situation?

Thanks for any ideas!
