You'll have to make your userdb return "quota=dirsize:storage=123456" setting for different users. What userdb do you use? http:// wiki.dovecot.org/Quota shows some examples for SQL/LDAP.The problem is I don't use any userdb, only use the passdb_pam.
You do use a userdb. Most likely passwd. Otherwise you couldn't log in at all.
So, do I have to use userdb to authenticate users? or can I just use any userdb for the quota part only. If that is so how can I set up the db config? search the wiki.dovecot.org/Quota but could not find any config that suit my current config ,that's why I plan to use the dict server. Thanks again.
You'll still have the exact same problem with dict, since you'd still have to set the quota from the userdb.
There's an alternative way you could do with http://wiki.dovecot.org/PostLoginScripting, for example (just the simplest script I could think of):
#!/bin/sh
quota=/etc/dovecot-quota/$USER if [ -f $quota ]; then export QUOTA=dirsize:storage=
cat $quotafiexec /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap
Have done that . What should I put in the plugin {}. Should it be :
quota = dirsize:storage=10240 or quota = $QUOTA
Sorry, I'm a bit of newbie at this. -- azhar --
