[Dovecot] quota: maildrop + dovecot. dovecot doesn't update maildirsize file
Hi all, I'm trying to implement quota support in postfix using maildrop + dovecot but I think dovecot doesn't update info stored in maildirsize file.
# 1.0.2: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf base_dir: /var/run/dovecot/ listen: 127.0.0.1 ssl_listen: * ssl_ca_file: ... ssl_cert_file: ... ssl_key_file: ... ssl_cipher_list: ALL:!LOW:!SSLv2 login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable: /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap-login valid_chroot_dirs: /home/vmail/domains first_valid_uid: 1001 last_valid_uid: 1001 first_valid_gid: 1001 last_valid_gid: 1001 mail_location: maildir:/home/vmail/domains/%d/%n auth default: user: dovecot-auth passdb: driver: ldap args: /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf userdb: driver: ldap args: /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf plugin: quota: maildir:ignore=Trash
When a mail arrives maildrop delivers it and update info in the maildirsize file, but when I delete messages through dovecot (using thunderbird) the maildirsize remains the same and so users reach overquota very soon.
What's wrong?
Thanks in advance, Laurento
Hi Laurento,
I think you missed out mail_plugins = quota for the appropriate protocol(s)?
e.g. protocol imap { ... mail_plugins = quota ... }

You're right :) Now I added it and thunderbird show me the quota % usage but when I delete messages the quota still doesn't change. I think dovecot should update maildirsize when I made some change to my folders, shouldn't it?

Hi Laurento,
"imap_quota" is the plugin that reports quota information to Thunderbird. "quota" is the one you are looking for.
My config looks like this:
protocol imap { login_executable = /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login mail_executable = /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap imap_max_line_length = 65536 mail_plugins = quota imap_quota mail_log mail_plugin_dir = /usr/local/lib/dovecot/imap login_greeting_capability = no imap_client_workarounds = outlook-idle }
Now it seems to work using ldap backend to sync maildrop and dovecot info ;)
I followed wiki example and I'm using this simple convert script because I'm storing quota info in ldap using the courier format <bytes>S to use it with maildrop (through authlib) too
-- quota_convert.sh
#!/bin/bash
if [[ -n "${QUOTA_COURIER}" ]] ; then
# strip the 'S' from the stored quota value (courier format)
export QUOTA=maildir:storage=expr ${QUOTA_COURIER/S/} / 1024:ignore=Trash
fi
exec /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap
PS: checking for non-zero length var avoid an expr error message when dovecot starts
Many thanks for the help.
Cheers, Laurento
