What im tryin to do now is to modify postfix->procmail->dovecot config in a way that if user is over quota mail delivery is delayed instead of bouncing. (is this possible?)
Check the quota_full_tempfail setting,
For some reason when i configure dovecot to act as the final LDA in procmail and set quota_full_tempfail = yes overquota mails get lost somewhere As Virtualmin is relying for some of its functons on procmail droping it compleetly is impossible or at least very difficult.
Second thing i would like to achive is that when authenticated users close to quota/group quota for example 10MB to quota limit try sending email theyr mail is rejected and preferably an email is generated telling them to free some space for new mails first. (is such a thing possible?)
Check "Quota warnings" at http://wiki.dovecot.org/Quota/1.1
I agree this is the solution for sending a warning email, but is there a method to actually prohibit users close to quota to send emails? Ie defining dovecot as authentication agent ?

to make things easier for everyone im posting snippets from my config of dovecot and procmail
:0wi VIRTULAMIN=|/etc/webmin/virtual-server/lookup-domain.pl $LOGNAME EXITCODE=0 :0
- ?/usr/bin/test "$VIRTUALMIN" != "" { INCLUDERC=/etc/webmin/virtual-server/procmail/$VIRTUALMIN } DEFAULT=$HOME/Maildir/ ORGMAIL=$HOME/Maildir/ DELIVER="/usr/lib/dovecot/deliver" DROPPRIVS=yes
dovecot config snippets regarding LDA
protocol lda { mail_plugins = quota quota_full_tempfail = yes }
for some reason this results in mails lost without any trace when users are over quota (i would like to requeue those emails for later delivery)
Most probably its not directly dovecot related but as most people here are more or less runing mail servers so maybe someone could help me further.
