Hello,

I've tried that (i.e. the < redirect) as described in the wiki, tried with different spaces , and it didn't work, thus the email to the mailing list. the text there is simply absent in the email that is sent out. on a side note, I've tried to use file in /tmp/test and the behavior is funny, I get:

doveconf: Fatal: Error in configuration file /etc/dovecot/conf.d/90-quota.conf line 96: quota_exceeded_message: Can't open file /tmp/test: No such file or directory

but If I place it under / or under /etc/dovecot , the daemon runs fine, yet as described, the content is not included in the message sent out!

Greetings,

I've been trying to have quota_exceeded_message read from a file according

to

https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Quota/Configuration#Custom_Quota_Exceeded_Message

; I'm running dovecot 2.2.10 on Centos 7. If I set text right to the equal

sign, it works fine, but I'd rather load it from a file as I need a new

line and %n and \n and simple \ followed by a newline are not working and

would understandably crash the processes if malformed.

nothing special about my setting, the file is located in the /etc/dovecot

directory but separate from the config files (not in the conf.d directory),

with a world readable permission.

Regards,

M.

Try quota_exceeded_message =</path/to/file
