I have to face it, my users are retards:
- either they're using crap MUAs which will not display their quota to them
- or they're using POP with "leave mail on server" and will never notice their quota, unless it's too late
- and once their quota is exceeded, their mails will bounce -- they'll never notice that, though.
Thus I need a feature in dovecot that will tell them via email:
Level1: "You ALMOST exceeded your quota, you're at 90% now" Level2: "You're very close to exceededin your quota, you're at 95% now" Level3: "Would you please clean up now? You're at 99% now"
http://dovecot.org/patches/quota-warning.patch would do it, assuming you're not using filesystem quota.
I'm not exactly sure how its configuration went. It's described somewhere in this mailing list.
