It's not clear to me if you've tried setting a quota using cyradm.

Once you use that to set the quota, then the quota folder will appear.

It will contain a file like 'user.username' (e.g. user.phr2101)
with info on that user's quota.

Hello all..

Got Cyrus up and running but don't want people to abuse my space on my system, so I would like to setup a quota. I looked into the docs and it mentioned a folver in /var/imap but I have no quota folder, here is the step because my partition is ext2

*LINUX SYSTEMS USING EXT2FS ONLY*: Set the user, quota, and partition directories to update synchronously. Failure to do this may lead to data corruption and/or loss of mail after a system crash. Unfortunately, doing so may result in a serious performance hit. If you are using a newer filesystem than ext2fs on Linux, this step should not be necessary. (Running ext3 in any mode is safe.)

  cd /var/imap
  chattr +S user quota user/* quota/*

I only have the user folder so I am not sure if I just create the folder or where I would begin to setup a quota...can someone point me in the right direction?

Kurt

  chattr +S /var/spool/imap /var/spool/imap/*
