I changed all examples to use "quota = xxx:user" and added a note about Apple Mail to http://wiki.dovecot.org/Quota/1.1.
Thanks but do you expect that everyone know what a "quota root name" is?
It's hard to understand without the previous discussion on this list. And why is it called "...:user"? Is it an arbitrary string and can someone use "inbox" or "foo" instead?
And "xxx:user" imply that this is related to "...:user" which is documented as parameter on the Quota/FS wiki page but definition on Quota/1.1 talks about "backend args" instead "parameter". But both ":user" parameters are not related as far as I understood.
For me the quota pages in the Wiki seems to be more confusing than the rest. Hopefully they get restructured some day so that the 1.0, Trash-1.0, and quota-rewrite patch becomes part of a legacy section. As a result, quota description could be more clear with one overview and a list of backends incl. their arguments.
Or as "dict" needs to be different for version 1.2 put description for every version on separate wiki pages and (if necessary) use include for common sections. The page Quota/Dict is everything but easy to read with jumping betweens different dovecot versions several times.
Please get me right: I really like the wiki documentation but some parts are a bit confusing. It is a wiki and everyone could help and change it but I doubt that anyone dares structural changes except Timo.
