Hi all,
I have run into a problem which I cannot find a solution for.
I have created an additional private namespace with the following commands in dovecot.conf :
namespace { disabled = no hidden = no ignore_on_failure = no inbox = no list = children location = maildir:/var/vmail/archives/%Ln/Maildir mailbox "archived mails" { auto = subscribe driver = special_use = \Archive } prefix = Archives/ separator = / subscriptions = yes type = private }
plugin { quota = maildir:User quota:ns= quota2 = maildir:Archives quota:ns=Archives/ quota2_rule = *:storage=5G quota_rule = *:storage=1G quota_rule2 = Trash:storage=+200M }
I can access the new namespace without any problems but every time a folder in this namespace is accessed, I get the following error messages in mail.err log:
dovecot: imap(testuser): Error: quota: Unknown namespace: Archives/ dovecot: last message repeated 49 times
Quota seems to work, though I have the feeling, that it only will be updated when closing and reopening the mail client, but this can also be a client issue.
Quota for the INBOX is either taken from LDAP or, if there is no value defined in LDAP, will be assigned a quota of 1G
The Archives/ namespace has a static quota of 5G for every user.
Does anyone have idea how to get rid of these error messages ?
Thank you for your kind help
Andreas
why you want to have a separate namespace for archives ?, why not use simply a imap folder for every user ( which i wouldnt call archives, cause that name is allready used by thunderbird etc ), or use some pub namespace with an archive-username folder, restrictions can be done by acl, what problem youre trying to solve?
perhaps you might have a look at
