I've been trying to set up dovecot 2.0.15, everything seems to work pretty well except for the quota feature. I would like to set a quota limit only for the Inbox folder. I configured two namespaces, according to some posts from Timo Sirainen
namespace { separator = / prefix = INBOX/ location = mbox:/var/empty:INBOX=/mail/%d/%n:INDEX=/var/dovecot/%d/%n inbox = yes hidden = yes }
plugin { quota = dirsize:User quota
quota = dirsize:User quota:ns=INBOX/
Actually I forgot to mention that I also tried that, but I got the following error:
Error: Initialization failed: Failed to initialize quota: Quota root User quota: Unknown parameter for backend dirsize: ns=INBOX/
That's why I was trying to change quota settings by using the quota_rule directive.
This limits the quota only to mailboxes in INBOX/ namespace.
# I've tried with: quota_rule = INBOX:storage=819200K quota_rule = INBOX/*:storage=819200K quota_rule = INBOX/Inbox:storage=819200KQuota rules don't work in this way. There are no per-mailbox quotas really, at least in the way you're thinking about.
I see, I guess they're per-namespace quotas, right? I got the wrong idea after watching the following, which was exactly what I wanted to do :p
quota_rule = <mailbox name>:<limit configuration>
May be that, using dirsize backend lets you no other option than calculating quota for the whole user's mailbox?
