I would love to use Dovecot, but I have spend three weeks, consisting of about 3 man hours daily, to try and get quotas working in mysql and dovecot LDA. The result is that Dovecot deliver ignores the quotas (stored in mysql). Sadly, I have exhausted any good will I had from the Dovecot mailing list for at least until they have forgotten my email address :-) There are only so many stupid questions I can ask. Also, I have Dovecot 1.2 (latest) and won't upgrade to version 2 until its in the Debian repos. At least I can keep this stable. I can live with a Postfix patch for the timebeing. I shall move to Dovecot 2 when it is in the Debian squeeze repositories. Therefore, I'll look into the postfix VDA patch - At least it would reject it before it even got as far as Dovecot, which would reduce load.
