Hi, I edited the /etc/passwd file for one of user, but the quota is not taking effect for this user, the user is able to receive mails more than the quota allocated.
testuser:x:515:516::/home/testuser:/bin/bash:userdb_quota_rule=*.bytes=3M
My output of dovecot -n
base_dir: /var/run/dovecot/ log_path: /var/log/dovecot ssl: no disable_plaintext_auth: no login_dir: /var/run/dovecot//login login_executable: /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login mail_privileged_group: mail mail_location: mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u lda: postmaster_address: postmaster@xxxx.in auth default: mechanisms: plain login passdb: driver: pam userdb: driver: passwd plugin: quota: maildir:User quota quota_rule: *:storage=2048 quota_rule2: Trash:storage=1024
Are my editing in /etc/passwd and dovecot.conf is correct, guide me
Thanks in advance
Regards, P. Prasanna
