Hi,

Im having problem with quota with 1.0.rc17-1ubuntu2.3. Problem is that
dovecot wont bounce when quota are exceeded. I have set my quota limit to
2MB and my test-box is 3MB. here is my config:

dovecot.conf:
#ssl_cert_file = /etc/pki/dovecot/certs/myserver.example.com.crt
#ssl_key_file = /etc/pki/dovecot/private/myserver.example.com.key
#ssl_ca_file = /etc/pki/dovecot/certs/ca-bundle.crt
mail_location = maildir:/home/vmail/%d/%u
first_valid_uid = 5000
last_valid_uid = 5000
maildir_copy_with_hardlinks = yes
disable_plaintext_auth = no
protocols = imap imaps pop3 pop3s
protocol imap {
  mail_plugins = quota imap_quota
  imap_client_workarounds = outlook-idle delay-newmail
}
protocol pop3 {
  mail_plugins = quota
  pop3_client_workarounds = outlook-no-nuls oe-ns-eoh
}
protocol lda {
  postmaster_address = postmaster at example.com
  mail_plugins = quota
  log_path = /var/log/dovecot-deliver.log
  info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot-deliver.log
}
auth default {
# Having "login" also as a mechanism make sure outlook can use the auth
smtpd as well
# http://wiki.dovecot.org/Authentication/Mechanisms
  mechanisms = plain login
  passdb sql {
    args = /etc/dovecot/sql.conf
  }
  userdb sql {
    args = /etc/dovecot/sql.conf
  }
userdb static {
    args = uid=5000 gid=5000 home=/home/vmail/%d/%n allow_all_users=yes
}
userdb prefetch {
  }
  user = nobody
  socket listen {
    master {
      path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master
      mode = 0660
      user = vmail
      group = vmail
    }
    client {
      path = /var/spool/postfix/private/auth
      mode = 0660
      user = postfix
      group = postfix
    }
  }
}
dict {
}
plugin {
  quota = maildir:storage=1024:messages=1000
  acl = vfile:/etc/dovecot/acls
  trash = /etc/dovecot/trash.conf
}

sql.conf:
driver = mysql
connect = host=localhost dbname=mdbv3 user=xxxx password=xxxx

user_query = SELECT concat('/home/vmail/', maildir) as home,
concat('maildir:/home/vmail/', maildir) as mail, 5000 AS uid, 5000 AS gid,
concat('maildir:storage=', quota) AS quota FROM mailbox WHERE username =
'%u' AND active = '1'

password_query = SELECT username as user, password, concat('/home/vmail/',
maildir) as userdb_home, concat('maildir:/home/vmail/', maildir) as
userdb_mail, 5000 as userdb_uid, 5000 as userdb_gid FROM mailbox WHERE
username = '%u' AND active = '1'


Is this file even nessesary ?
(postfix stuff) mysql_virtual_mailbox_limit_maps.cf (not showing login inf
etc):
query           = SELECT quota FROM mailbox WHERE username='%s' AND active
= '1'
