Thanks for your samples, they would help me so much! My config is commented because i didn't know how to properly configure it, didn't understand theory to start doing things on practice. can you show me your dovecot-mysql.conf as well ? it should be final peace of puzzle for me. i'm interested in this two almost different user_query lines:
user_query = SELECT concat('/home/vmail/', maildir) as home, concat('maildir:/home/vmail/', maildir) as mail, 1001 AS uid, 12 AS gid, concat('maildir:storage=', quota) AS quota FROM mailbox WHERE username = '%u' AND active = '1'
user_query = SELECT maildir, 1001 AS uid, 1001 AS gid, CONCAT('dict:storage=',floor(quota/1000),' proxy::quota') as quota FROM mailbox WHERE username = '%u' AND active='1'
first one provided from dovecot wiki and second one from postfixadmin docs regarding dovecot configuration. may i use user_query like this? :
user_query = SELECT concat('/home/vmail/', maildir) as home, concat('maildir:/home/vmail/', maildir) as mail, 1001 AS uid, 12 AS gid, CONCAT('dict:storage=',floor(quota/1000),' proxy::quota') AS quota FROM mailbox WHERE username = '%u' AND active = '1'
seems like this line doing some nice customization showing quota in kilobytes and not in bytes. or if someone could explain what does this string means. also what does this line means ?: concat('maildir:/home/vmail/', maildir) as mail string about home i understood dovecot reads users home dir from this line. And i dont understand if why should i indicate in 10-mail.conf next string: mail_location = maildir:/home/vmail/%d/%u If it is overided by user_query from mysql?
Also what is meaning of quota(2) table. does dovecot reading configuration from there or just stores usage information ? Also what does this string mean?: pattern = priv/quota/messages what privileges those who reads the, or where are they indicated ?
Thanks in advance. Denis.
Maybe stupid, but are these plugin examples really from your dovecot.conf file ? If so remove the # before the quota lines!
this is my part from dovecot.conf (only relavant quota parts.)
quotadict = mysql:/usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot-dict-quota.conf
plugin { # Quota config quota = dict:User quota::noenforcing:proxy::quotadict quota_rule = *:storage=1G quota_rule2 = Trash:storage=+100M quota_warning = storage=95%% quota-warning 95 %u quota_warning2 = storage=90%% quota-warning 90 %u quota_warning3 = storage=80%% quota-warning 80 %u #OTHER Plugins .... .... }
service quota-warning { executable = script /usr/local/bin/quota-warning.sh user = vmail unix_listener quota-warning { user = vmail } }
protocol imap { imap_client_workarounds = delay-newmail tb-extra-mailbox-sep imap_idle_notify_interval = 120 s imap_logout_format = bytes=%i/%o imap_max_line_length = 65536 mail_plugins = quota imap_quota autocreate acl imap_acl mail_log notify fts fts_squat }
protocol lmtp { auth_socket_path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master mail_plugins = sieve quota acl mail_log notify postmaster_address = postmaster@yourdomain.com sendmail_path = /usr/local/sbin/sendmail }
Above protocol lmtp could be protocol lda in your case
This is my dovecot-dict-quota.conf file
# Dovecot 2.0.x connect = host=192.xxx.xxx.xxx dbname=postfix user=postfix password=mypostfixpasswd map { pattern = priv/quota/storage table = quota2 username_field = username value_field = bytes } map { pattern = priv/quota/messages table = quota2 username_field = username value_field = messages }
This is my /usr/local/bin/quota-warning.sh file
#!/usr/local/bin/bash PERCENT=$1 USER=$2 cat << EOF | /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver -d $USER -o "plugin/quota=maildir:User quota:noenforcing" From: support@yourdomain.com Subject: quota warning

Hope this helps.
