Hello all. I use dovecot in combination with postfix, postfixadmin for virtual users. Deliver to the mailbox now is done by postfix Now i want to enable quota's and therefor i need dovecot deliver. Can i just switch to dovecot deliver? Or must i first do some prrperations in the mailboxes.

regards One more question regarding this. All the howto's are using a seperate user for the dovecot LDA, like vmail. Now all my mailboxes have the userid and groupid from postfix. Can i use the postfix user for the dovecot LDA?

Citing PIPE(8postfix): user=username (required)
user=username:groupname
Execute the external command with the rights of the
specified username. The software refuses to execute
commands with root privileges, or with the privileges
of the mail system owner. If groupname is specified,
the corresponding group ID is used instead of the
group ID of username.You may read http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA for more details.
