Hi Ralf,
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.
