a) You need the workaround patch I posted earlier to have QUOTA in the
capability string (pending a better way for plugins to hook into the
capability command handler)
b) our /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf contains the line:
user_attrs = uid,homeDirectory,mailStoreDirectory,,,,mailQuota=quota
It's that last part that is significant - it ties Dovecot's internal
QUOTA environmental variable to the mailQuota LDAP attribute, which
then looks like this:
mailQuota: dirsize:/var/mailstore/bob at example.com/:storage=102400
These aren't standard attribute names, by the way - they're from a
private enterprise schema.
anyway, hth.
Joshua.
