[Dovecot] maildirsize problem?
Hello all,
Recently I have received a few complaints from users that their quota was being reported wrong. This seems to have started when I switched to quota=maildir and ignore=Trash (did both at the same time). The main reported problem is that maildirsize is not correctly updated when they delete messages. My personal hypothesis is something like this:
- User moves to Trash
- Trash is ignored so it is not marked on the maildirsize (?)
- User purges trash
- Trash is still ignored so it is still not marked (?)
Resulting in a buildup of errors in the maildirsize file. Would it be a good idea to mark the maildirsize file when a file is moved to an ignored folder? That could though potentially lead to people just moving to trash instead of deleting.
Thank you guys and keep up the good work!

AFAIK, this has been fixed in rc27, see http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot-news/2007-March/000036.html
