As far as I known, there is no specific config for LMTP transport when 
quota is considered.

When testing quota messages, the most problems for me was with the fact, 
that the warning is triggered only when the limit is reached. Only once 
for each limit.


The script we are using:

#!/bin/bash
PERCENT=$1
USER=$2
DOMAIN=$3

cat << EOF | /usr/lib/dovecot/dovecot-lda -d $USER -o 
"plugin/quota=dict:User quota::noenforcing:proxy::quota"
From: postmaster@$DOMAIN
Subject: ostrzeżenie o przekroczeniu wolnego miejsca / quota warning

Twa skrzynka jest zapełniona w $PERCENT%.

Your mailbox is now $PERCENT% full.
