The public mailbox quota works fine. Thanks to ll who helped. I'm running 1.2.4 This is what I did to get a public folder called newsletters with quota of 100M
1. Create a maildir called newsletters 2. Entered this to define the namespace in dovecot.conf namespace public { separator = / prefix = newsletters/ list = yes subscriptions = yes location = maildir:/home/public/newsletters } 3. quota3 = maildir:Public quota:ns=newsletters/ 4. quota3_rule = *:storage=100M Thanks again.
