I've noticed that http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Quota/Configuration is out of date, it says:
plugin {
quota = maildir:User quota
quota_rule = *:storage=1GB
# 10% of 1GB = 100MB
quota_rule2 = Trash:storage=10%%
# 20% of 1GB = 200MB
quota_rule3 = Spam:storage=20%%
}
but if you use the '10%%' notation, dovecot complains, and *also* incorrectly:
dovecot: imap(t...@example.net): Warning: quota root mail quota rule
Trash:bytes=10%: obsolete configuration for rule 'bytes=10%' should be changed
to 'bytes=+10%'
its incorrect because if you change it to what it suggests ('+10%') it
wont work because that wont be 10% more, rather, it is set to bytes=+10:
dovecot: imap(t...@example.net): Debug: Quota rule: root=mail quota
mailbox=Trash bytes=+10 messages=0
clearly, that isn't right... so I guess it needs to be changed to
'+10%%', setting that provides:
dovecot: imap(t...@example.net): Debug: Quota rule: root=mail quota mailbox=*
bytes=2211724 messages=0
dovecot: imap(t...@example.net): Debug: Quota rule: root=mail quota
mailbox=Trash bytes=+221172 (10%) messages=0
that seems ok, its saying the Trash mailbox is set to have 221172bytes
(215 kilobytes) of quota. So, clearly
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Quota/Configuration needs to be updated.
However, it doesn't seem to work in practice, because I have a user that
is at 99% of quota, with nothing in the Trash who cannot move a 77KB
message into the Trash without getting the quota_exceeded message and
refusing to move it.
so... how do I get this to work?
thanks!
