Hi List,

I have (otherwise successfull) migrated a server from cyrus to dovecot (Mac OS X Server 10.5.8 to 10.6.4 [dovecotd version to be 1.1.20apple0.5]). There are ca. 300+ users of which a very small handfull (ca. 1 %) are having reported a usage size that is very different to what 'du' reports. How can I rebuild the maildirsize and why might it be wrong in the first place(?) Will the maildirsize files be regenerated if deleted and when will this then happen ( at the next time of the user logging in or…)

From what I can read here: http://www.inter7.com/courierimap/README.maildirquota.html The maildirsize file contains (in linenumber > 1) "bytecount SPACE filecount"

I also have one (perhaps more) user with one line having a negative value in maildirsize (-138204393 -2294) how can that happen / be corrected?

Here's the info for one user with an much to high reporting of usage:
