Cyrus IMAP uses a 32bit int to store quota in bytes internally, this causes problems with large quotas. While the bug says 2GB, from what I saw in the code a while back it's an unsigned long which should max out at 4GB.

Can one of the developers clarify 2/4GB as the maximum?

Hi all!

I have this user's box which is NOT over quota but Cyrus insists on
saying that it is to sendmail. Also
I am not able to drag messages into it.

I have ran 'reconstruct' on the the folder with '-r -f' and 'cyrquota
-f' also. I have increased/decreased the quota...

The problem does not go away.

Could someone please provide some insight on this issue?


How do you know for a fact that the user is not over quota?


Well... the a 'du' on the filesystem shows the usage around 2Gb. The
quota root was
set to 5,000,000. Plus 'cyrquota' would report around 40% usage which
agrees with
the number I just gave you.

Keep in mind that a quotaroot includes ALL submailboxes.

And that is the reason why I check 'du' on filesystem folder.


Are there \Deleted messages which have not been expunged?

Not quite sure. Wouldn't these count?


Is the MUA using a Trash folder?


In the user's inbox? Yes, but that one is empty. Wouldn't that also add
up to the
quota root?

Two additional details:
1) it's cyrus 2.0.17
2)  I attempted to set the quota to 50,000,000 and the problem went away.
With that
quota value the usage is down to 4%.

Thanks Ken!!!
