Hello,
I executed a backup on my dovecot installation and saw that after the first backup, the used space in quota doubled. After executing a recalc all went to normal. For this small size mailbox it is not a problem, but I did a backup on a bigger mailbox, and it started to reject messages because of 'over quota'.
Here is an example:
# doveadm quota get -u info@domain.abc Quota name Type Value Limit % User quota STORAGE 16798 16777216 0 User quota MESSAGE 628 - 0 Domain quota STORAGE 32282 67108864 0 Domain quota MESSAGE 645 - 0
[root@vmi792826 ~]# doveadm backup -u info@domain.abc mdbox:/tmp/backup/info@plant-systems
[root@vmi792826 ~]# doveadm quota get -u info@domain.abc Quota name Type Value Limit % User quota STORAGE 33596 16777216 0 User quota MESSAGE 1256 - 0 Domain quota STORAGE 64563 67108864 0 Domain quota MESSAGE 1290 - 0
[root@vmi792826 ~]# doveadm quota recalc -u info@domain.abc
[root@vmi792826 ~]# doveadm quota get -u info@domain.abc Quota name Type Value Limit % User quota STORAGE 16798 16777216 0 User quota MESSAGE 628 - 0 Domain quota STORAGE 32282 67108864 0 Domain quota MESSAGE 645 - 0
Is it normal to have to issue a recalc after backup, or can it be some misconfiguration on my side?
