Use Dovecot's quota plugin - which supports different backends. Each user may have a different quota limit.
* http://wiki2.dovecot.org/QuotaSo I need EITHER:
- a method of downloading locally *all* messages from the server (incoming, sent, trash, drafts, etc.) to the workstation, when the user consults his/her mailbox from a POP3 desktop client, thus completely *emptying* the user's mailbox on the server
Usually only the INBOX is visible via POP3 …
OR
- an automatic, elegant but forceful method of deleting all messages older than X days (incoming, sent, trash, drafts, etc.)
There is the expire plugin for Dovecot.
* http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Plugins/ExpireI've tried to use a line such as:
doveadm expunge -u john.doe@example.com before 4w
run as root, from a script in crontab, but for "expunge" doveadm won't let me skip the "-u" parameter (to perform the expunge for *all* users).
Could you please help? Any sugestion is welcomed.
There is also the -A option, see http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Tools/Doveadm/Expunge#section_options
