Re: quota warnings not sent out anymore
Hi Christian,
Thanks for replying!
It seems that your comments (or perhaps some of my recent config
tinkering) helped, because once I tried just now to make it go from 89%
to 91%, and I did receive the quota warning!
Thanks!

Hello
Just to clarify.
You only will getting an over quota once, you step over one or multiple
of those quota warning limits while storing an email.
Therefore you will not get any warning, just because you are over that
85% limit.
If you receive another email in that account, and go at least over 90%,
then dovecot will call your script once.
If you also go over 100% with that same mail, you will not get one for
90% or 95%, but only one for 100%.
You also should check, if you have any environment variables set, which
are not present, when your script is run by dovecot.
Do you have any logging in it?
Kind regards,

Hi,
I am still struggling with this, and would appreciate any help ayone can

I created a test account t...@company.com:

STORAGE 1209

88
MESSAGE 35

As you can see, the test mailbox is 88% full, so it should receive
warnings, because in dovecot.conf I have set:
plugin {
quota = maildir
quota_rule = ?:storage=5G
quota_rule2 = Trash:storage=+100M
quota_warning = storage=97%% quota-warning 97 %u
quota_warning2 = storage=95%% quota-warning 95 %u
quota_warning3 = storage=90%% quota-warning 90 %u
quota_warning4 = storage=85%% quota-warning 85 %u
quota_warning5 = storage=80%% quota-warning 80 %u
quota_warning6 = -storage=100%% quota-warning below %u
}
We use a script to send out the email warnings, configured like this:
service quota-warning {
executable = script /usr/local/bin/quota-warning.sh
unix_listener quota-warning {
user = vmail
mode = 0666
}
user = vmail
}
When running this script manually as vmail, the warning is delivered to
the test user:
sudo -H -u vmail bash -c '/usr/local/bin/quota-warning.sh 90 test'
However, in practice: dovecot never sends out any quota-warnings. It
just starts generating delivery failures when the mailbox is over 100%.
We define the per-user quota in the first line of each user's
maildirsize file, for the test user: /var/vmail/test/Maildir/maildirsize
Here is a debug=yes log file of 88% full incoming mailbox delivery:

Re: quota warnings not sent out anymore
Additional info: there seems to be permission-related issue anyway, as
we also see messages like these in our logs:
2021-12-03T19:06:15.032873+01:00 hostname dovecot - - - quota-warning: Error:
lda(username,)Error: net_connect_unix(/var/run/dovecot/stats-writer) failed:

But are permissions of stats-writer related to not sending out quota
notifications?

Hi,
We suddenly realised that our maildir quota warnings are no longer sent
out. We don't understand why not.
This is dovecot 2.3.4.1 on debian 10.11. We use a script to send out the
notification, adapted from the dovecot wiki here:
(https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/quota/)
Our quota notification script is:
#!/bin/sh
PERCENT=$1
USER=$2
cat << EOF | /usr/lib/dovecot/dovecot-lda -d $USER -o
"plugin/quota=maildir::noenforcing"
From: nore...@domain.com
Subject: quota warning
Your mailbox is now $PERCENT% full.
Please delete or archive items to decrease your mailbox size.
Our complete doveconf -n output is at the end of this email.
When calling the script manually as user root, it works perfectly. But
as user vmail or dovecot, no notifications are sent at all.
I guess this is relevant:

quota warnings not sent out anymore
Hi,
We suddenly realised that our maildir quota warnings are no longer sent
out. We don't understand why not.
This is dovecot 2.3.4.1 on debian 10.11. We use a script to send out the
notification, adapted from the dovecot wiki here:
(https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/quota/)
Our quota notification script is:
#!/bin/sh
PERCENT=$1
USER=$2
cat << EOF | /usr/lib/dovecot/dovecot-lda -d $USER -o
"plugin/quota=maildir::noenforcing"
From: nore...@domain.com
Subject: quota warning
Your mailbox is now $PERCENT% full.
Please delete or archive items to decrease your mailbox size.
Our complete doveconf -n output is at the end of this email.
When calling the script manually as user root, it works perfectly. But
as user vmail or dovecot, no notifications are sent at all.
I guess this is relevant:
root@dovecot:/etc/dovecot# ls -l /var/run/dovecot/
