[Dovecot] Urgent problem with deleting emails and maildirsize

[Jose Luis Marin Perez]

Thanks for your response Eduardo. 

 Apologies to the list by the rush and lack of information when reporting a problem. 

 I have installed on a server as follows: 
 
 Qmail 
 Vpopmail 
 Dovecot 
 Horde 

 With three mail domains using three different webmails. 


One of the webmails is configured so that when delete some
mail move to Trash directory, I have no problem here because I've
configured Dovecot to ignore this folder to quota 

 The other
two webmails are not configured to use the Trash directory and when you
delete some mail will be maintained in the INBOX but it shows shading
and the server adds the flag T: 

 1244457746.11461.domain.com, S = 5413:2, ST 

 So no updates maildirsize and quota does not change, this may result in the accounts quickly reach 100% usage. 

Dovecot configuration
