Hi,
In that case you might be better of using the doveadm http api for accessing the information over http/json interface:

Hello Mike and Aki,
Thanks for the response. I had been using FETCH 1:* in my IMAP module, but found it slow with folders with lots of messages or even large-sized messages folder. The doveadm seems elegant and faster but I hate to fork a command line from web-UI, for obvious security and performance reasons. It will be great if dovecot team will consider IMAP extensions to release doveadm features when useful/relevant like this.
Regards Vijay

Is there a simple way to get each mailbox size using dovecot's IMAP interface? The GETQUOTAROOT and GETQUOTA seems to work with the full maildir size and not the individual folders.
I am finding a simple way for the webmail client to show usage of each folder.
Thanks Vijay

If you want an IMAP specific method (rather than doveadm), you are stuck with "FETCH 1:* (RFC822.SIZE)". With the nasty requirement - if you want 100% full accuracy - that you need to track responses to ensure that each size is only counted once. Practically speaking this shouldn't happen by any reasonable server, but the warning needs to be made.
