So looks like you don't have to worry about setting quota limits, since
you can use the exact same configuration. The only thing you need to
change is where you currently have:

plugin {
  ..
  quota = maildir
}

You'll have to change it to :

plugin {
  ..
  quota = dict:::proxy::quotadict
}

And then add:

dict {
  quotadict = mysql:/etc/dovecot-dict-quota.conf
} 

And create the quota dovecot-dict-quota.conf file as specified in the
wiki page and create the quota SQL table as specified by the wiki. The
quota SQL table contains the users' current quota values, not the
limits.
