(or depending on your settings change $USER, $HOME or use netcat and master user login)

Thanks for the response. It seems to be a good solution! But I don't know how use this tool. My mailboxes are in : /var/mail/vmails/domain.tld/username

And you use a single UID to access them?

How know the size of username@domain.tld with dovecot -exec-mail imap?

See if this works (run as the same system user as mailboxes are
normally accessed with):

export USER=username@domain.tld printf "1 getquotaroot inbox\n" | dovecot --exec-mail imap

If not, post your dovecot -n output.
