I personnaly use courier's maildirmake, which is a real binary unlike dovecote's maildirmake which is a thin bash wrapper around the linux mkdir command. Courier's maildirmake on the other hand has this nice -q option that let you specify a quota, at creation time of afterwards.
I'm using it in a script like this :
root@messagerie[CHROOT][10.10.10.20] ~/SCRIPTS/MAIL # cat setupquota.single
if [[ "$#" = 0 ]] then echo "usage : $0 boite@domain.com [quota en megas]" exit 1 fi
quota=$((1024*1024*1024)) #1Go inbox="${1%@*}" maildir="/var/vmail/example.domain/$inbox" backup="/var/vmail/backup.example.domain/$inbox"
if [[ "$#" = 2 ]] then quota=$((1024*1024*$2)) fi
function set_quota { local quota="$1" local dst="$2" echo maildirmake.courier -q "$quota"S "$dst" maildirmake.courier -q "$quota"S "$dst" echo chown vmail:vmail -R "$dst" chown vmail:vmail -R "$dst" }
set_quota "$quota" "$maildir" quota=$(( 1024 * 1024 * 1024 * 5 )) # 5Go set_quota "$quota" "$backup" echo "-------------------------------------------------------------------------" root@messagerie[CHROOT][10.10.10.20] ~/SCRIPTS/MAIL #
And use it like this :
root@messagerie[CHROOT][10.10.10.19] ~/SCRIPTS/MAIL # ./setupquota.single h.messamri@example.domain 1024
From: "mkawada@redhat.com" <mkawada@redhat.com>To: dovecot@dovecot.org Sent: Wednesday, June 15, 2016 1:20 AM Subject: quota rules for mail users Dear All,
Is it possible to make quota rules under $HOME/Maildir/* mailboxes with a specific command such as 'edquota' when the first email arrives at the $HOME/Maildir/{new,cur,tmp} of a user. In the below example, the <UserB> is the one who gets an email for the first time.
&é"edquota -p <UserA> <UserB>
---man edquot--- -p, --prototype=protoname Duplicate the quotas of the prototypical user specified for each user specified. This is the normal mechanism used to initialize quotas for groups of users.
To configure quotas in postfix/dovecot environment, it seems that you need to use dovecot-lda plugin, and then my exact question is as follows:
Is it possible to automatically run any commands or scripts in order to set a quota rule to $HOME/Maildir/* mailboxes when users receive an email for the first time? I just found the post-login service allows you to execute scripts after authentication in the following URL, but I have not found the exact way to make it.

Any comments/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
