I'm migrating to LDAP mi local users, there is the auth section of my dovecot.conf

-- auth default { mechanisms = plain

socket listen { master { path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master mode = 0660 user = dovecot group = nusers } }

passdb ldap { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf }

passdb pam { }

userdb ldap { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf }

userdb prefetch { }

userdb passwd { }

user = root }

The idea is to try to find the user in the directory and if it isn't found then fallback to a local user lookup.

My quota configuration is

plugin { quota = maildir:storage=10240:ignore=Trash }

I have some users with particular quotas. With LDAP lookups, there is no problem, in those cases I simply put their particular quota values in their entries and pass it to dovecot via user_attrs.

I wonder how to do the same for local users, I mean, to have the ability of specifying particular quotas for some local users.

Another doubt is how to express to Dovecot that a user have no quota at all, could I use 0?
