10% of 1000 TB is still alot to accept :)
in dovecot it would make more sense to have accept 10M last mail since
postfix will accept one single 10M mail as default, then postfix policy
service checking storage in dovecot can see it only have room for one
single email more, before it gets rejected overqoutas in postfix
time for a policy server in postfix that uses dovecot quota dict
storage, postfixadmin already do this
if that is entirely done in the postfix side dovecot could be stopped
and it will still work on the postfix side of it, if dovecot policy
service is down, postfix will not get the result from it, but it could
failback to check dovecot dict still with is used in postfixadmin, hmm
