[Dovecot] Public Folder Quotas

[Peter Fraser]

The public mailbox quota works fine. Thanks to ll who helped. I'm running 1.2.4
This is what I did to get a public folder called newsletters with
quota of 100M

1. Create a maildir called newsletters
2. Entered this to define the namespace in dovecot.conf

namespace public {
  separator = /
  prefix = newsletters/
  list = yes
  subscriptions = yes
  location = maildir:/home/public/newsletters
}

3. quota3 = maildir:Public quota:ns=newsletters/
4. quota3_rule = *:storage=100M

Thanks again.
