I have just updated my patch that provides enhanced support for filesystem-based quotas in Dovecot. I provides 2 main features:
- Support for group quotas
- Number of messages quota for users of maildir
If both user and group quotas are enabled on the filesystem, the plugin will report the quota that is closer to the maximum independently for both storage space and message count. The message count quota comes from the filesystem inode quota.
This patch has been tested on Fedora Core only, but it should work on all other OSes. The only exception is there is no group support on Solaris (I believe this is a limitation of Sun's implementation of filesystem-based quotas).
I believe this patch make Dovecot's filesystem-based quota support complete. So, after a little bit of testing, it would be nice to have this merged with the main distribution.
