Hello,
I have been looking at enforcing quotas for users of my mail system (postfix
and Dovecot v1.2). Have tried to follow a few tuts on the web but its not
having the desired effect. Essentially I can still send and receive mail on
an account that I believe has had its quota exceeded.
In my main.cf, I have:
userdb sql {
args = /etc/dovecot/mysql/dovecot-mysql.conf
}
passdb sql {
args = /etc/dovecot/mysql/dovecot-mysql.conf
}
and...
protocol lda {
mail_plugins = quota
}
protocol imap {
mail_plugins = quota imap_quota
}
plugin {
quota_exceeded_message = You have exceeded the maximum quota for
your mailbox
}
the dovecot sql (mysql) file has the following query for pulling out user
ids and quotas etc:
user_query = SELECT maildir, mymailuser as uid, mymailgroup as
gid,concat('maildir:storage=',quota) as quota FROM virtual_mailbox WHERE
username = '%u'
I have set one of my users to have a quota of 1 (so one byte I believe) so
it should be over the limit pretty much immediately.
Looking at the logs I can see that the system is picking up on the quota
limit but doesn't seem to enforce it.

quota=maildir:storage=1
Apr 27 10:29:02 deliver(test at testdomain.com): Info: Quota root:
name=storage=1 backend=maildir args=
Any ideas? Am i missing something?
