I'm using dovecot 1.0.rc15 with debian etch.

I'd suggest upgrading to a newer version. backports.org has v1.0.10 for etch.

    In dovecot.conf I have set  
    mail_plugins = quota imap_quota for imap
    mail_plugins = quota for pop3
    and quota = maildir:storage=10240.
    I seems that it doesn't work 'cause I send messages over 10M and
    it
    doesn't block my maildir box.
    I have to do something more?

What do you mean by "send"? If you mean messages sent via SMTP, it doesn't work because it's your SMTP server that saves the mail and Dovecot never even sees it until it's already saved to the mailbox.

You may want to look into Dovecot's mail delivery agent and configure it also to use quota: http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA
