service-specific userdb affecting lmtp, quota-service

Update:
I was able to eliminate the /var/log/mail.err error messages (shown below)
by creating a userdb.quota-status and userdb.lmtp passwd-file. However,
since userdb.pop3 and userdb.imap will have different extra-fields values
for namespace (different namespace/xxx/inbox=yes values) I can't simply
create userdb.quota-status and userdb.lmtp as the union of userdb.pop3 and
userdb.imap. At a minimum, the extra-fields namespace info has to be left
out.
So this creates the question: For each service, which fields does the
userdb need to contain? I can't find that documented anywhere.
For example, for the quota-status service, I presume the following are
needed:
-- username
-- home directory (since mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir)
-- any "quota=" overrides in the extra-fields
-- nothing else
Is that right?
And I presume userdb.lmtp needs to return:
-- username
-- home directory (since mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir)
-- nothing else
Is that right?
Thanks,
Michael
