1. When specifying quota_rule = *, it warns
    FQuota root QUOTA: Invalid rule: *
    when starting dovecot.
2. If commenting out quota_rule =, we can not get the quota setting by
issueing
    the following command:
    a login user1 pass1
    user1 getquotaroot INBOX
    * QUOTAROOT "INBOX"
    user1 OK Getquotaroot completed.

    the content of maildirsize file
    750000000S
       435936340         8836

Is there any settings incorrect?

Thanks for your help.
