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.
Apr 27 10:29:02 deliver(test@testdomain.com): Info: auth input: quota=maildir:storage=1 Apr 27 10:29:02 deliver(test@testdomain.com): Info: Quota root: name=storage=1 backend=maildir args=
Any ideas? Am i missing something?
i would try something like in the wiki: plugin { quota = maildir:User quota quota_exceeded_message = You have exceeded }
Never used mysql for userdb or passdb though. Perhaps this would work:
user_query = SELECT maildir, mymailuser as uid, mymailgroup as gid,concat('*:storage=',quota) as quota_rule FROM virtual_mailbox WHERE username = '%u
