We're using Dovecot v1.2.15 LDA/IMAP/POP3+MySQL with quota plugin, quota_rule per-user size, quota_exceed_message and quota_warning on storage=90%%.with script. Everything is working as expected. But I've been asked to configure it the way, that when a user gets message, which would make his maildir over quota limit, notification go not only to sender, but also to postmaster@domain.com. Browsed wiki, mailinglist archive - couldn't find anything on that. Is there a way to implement such feature?
You could configure sendmail_path to a script that adds postmaster to the recipients list before execing the real sendmail. This of course assumes that you're not using Sieve, because then the sendmail_path is executed for other reasons as well. Or alternatively you could read the message body and see if it's a out-of-quota reply or not..
And what about possibility to send a message to user, notifying him about rejected email "from: xxx@yyy.com" with "subj: blah blah" due to full mailbox? Such messages are small and would not take too much space. Thus the user would know what he misses, urging him to clean his mailbox.
Same as above, make the script deliver the "out of quota" mail to user (with quota disabled so it won't go to infinite loop).
