Its been a while since I tried dovecot on my mail server where I have
quota issues. I am using mbox file format. There still seems to be a
quota problem. I have only /var with quotas and basedir is under /usr
(not quotaed). default_mail_env =  mbox:~/mail/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u.

I tried with mbox_locks = dotlock fcntl (1st set of logs below) and with
mbox_locks = fcntl (2nd set of logs)


dotlock:

Jun 12 17:02:49 newrook pop3(mike): open(/var/mail/mike.lock) failed:
Disk quota exceeded
Jun 12 17:02:49 newrook pop3(mike): file_lock_dotlock() failed with mbox
file /var/mail/mike: Disk quota exceeded
Jun 12 17:02:49 newrook pop3(mike): open(/var/mail/mike.lock) failed:

fcntl:

Jun 12 16:45:33 newrook pop3(mike): file_set_size() failed with mbox

I am using the latest CVS (as of 5 minutes ago). Wasn't this supposed to
be working? Have I missed something? My sole goal is to allow people to
delete mail when they are out of disk space.
