Hello,

I would like to compress the maildir of some of our users, I'm thinking to use this script: https://github.com/George-NG/dovecot-maildir-compress/blob/master/dovecot-maildir-compress

My question is, how dovecot will calculate the quota for that user after the compression? will dovecot calculate the quota of that user using the real size of the message file after compression, or the plain size before compression?

Is it necessary to recreate the index of that maildir after the compression is made? If so, what command should I use?


Thank you!
