Hello,

I have installed postfix 2.5.1 + dovecot 1.0.13 + MySQL and it all works perfectly. I use deliver as the local delivery agent and use IMAP only with maildir mailboxes. I am using virtual mailboxes.

Now I wanted to introduce quotas, but I can't manage to make them work. Quota information is retreived from MySQL in userdb requests.

I have noticed that the maildirsize file is not updated by deliver when a new mail comes in. I don't know if this is correct or not... It is updated though when I log in. But even then mails are still received without any kind of problem while the mailbox is well over the quota.

I tried to add a "-v" option to deliver in postfix's master.cf to debug deliver, but it apparently does not like this option.

Please find below my postfix and dovecot's configurations. Thank you very much for any help.

NB: I removed some sensitive configuration option for this email NB2: The user in question has a quota of 1MB
