Hi, After searching gmane.mail.imap.dovecot on the topic, and wiki.dovecot.org, I'm still clueless on how to use RFC 2087 quotas in dovecot with the quota plugin. How come no wiki doc?
I haven't yet managed to make it work myself either. Although I got as far as my system telling me that it doesn't support quotactl() syscall.
The point is anyway that userdb should be providing a "quota" named variable to Dovecot. So it doesn't even work with all userdbs yet. I'll probably have to add some other place to set it up also (similar to default_mail_env). Anyway, its format should be:
quota=fs:/home/user/mail
Or if all of the users are in same quota root, I suppose fs:/home works just as well.
If joeblow connects via dovecot IMAP, I want our webmail code (horde/imp) to tell him his disk quotas to keep him out of trouble. Horde/Imp (2.2.5) has quota code that says it works with Courier imap. Dovecot is supposed to be Courier compatible.
Well, Dovecot is mostly Courier compatible in its Maildir handling. I'd think the quota plugin is RFC2087 compatible and having nothing Courier-specific.
