When I try to move messages between folders I get 'Quota exceeded' messages.

I installed dovecot without any major configuration and accounts are created with PostfixAdmin.

Is there some common setting that I must be missing?

Version in use is 1.0 rc26

These are the parts of my configuration I consider relevant

/etc/dovecot.conf

protocol imap { mail_plugins = quota imap_quota imap_client_workarounds = outlook-idle delay-newmail } protocol pop3 { mail_plugins = quota pop3_client_workarounds = outlook-no-nuls oe-ns-eoh } protocol lda { postmaster_address = postmaster@abc.meripol.net mail_plugins = quota log_path = /var/log/dovecot-deliver.log info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot-deliver.log }

plugin { quota = maildir:storage=10240:messages=1000 acl = vfile:/etc/dovecot/acls trash = /etc/dovecot/trash.conf }

Looking at the above settings I assume that 10240 Kb or 1000 messages constitute the message limit.

Is there an override on a per mailbox setting in the mailbox folder?

Do Postfix and PostfixAdmin also have their custom settings?

The problem doesn't appear to apply at the delivery stage, so it appears to be something respected by dovecot alone.
