Hi Laurento,

"imap_quota" is the plugin that reports quota information to Thunderbird. 
"quota" is the one you are looking for.

My config looks like this:

protocol imap {
   login_executable = /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login
   mail_executable = /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap
   imap_max_line_length = 65536
   mail_plugins = quota imap_quota mail_log
   mail_plugin_dir = /usr/local/lib/dovecot/imap
   login_greeting_capability = no
   imap_client_workarounds = outlook-idle
}
