The postfixadmin DOVECOT.txt guide instructs me to add these:-

dovecot.conf:
dict {
   quota = mysql:/etc/dovecot/dovecot-dict-quota.conf
}

The dovecot-dict-quota.conf file contains:
driver = mysql
connect = host=localhost dbname=xxxx user=xxxxx password=xxxxx
default_pass_scheme = MD5-CRYPT
table = quota
select_field = current
where_field = path
username_field = username

It also instructs me to add this into the dovecot.conf, but adding it
causes dovecot to fatal.
## IMAP quota
protocol imap {
  quota = dict:storage=200000 proxy::quota
}
