Authdaemon use mysql to get quotas, so do postfix.
To get what the max quota is during delivery, yes. However, to get what the current status of the mailbox is, it has to read where that data is stored, which is the Maildir/maildirsize file. When maildrop or postfix or exim (whatever method you use) delivers that message to the mailbox, the Maildir/maildirsize file is updated (if it's configured properly). Courier-imap itself doesn't seem to ever update the quota limit that is recorded in the Maildir/maildirsize file, only the delivery agent updates the limits. Look at the command and what it is supposed to return: A003 GETQUOTAROOT INBOX * QUOTAROOT INBOX "" * QUOTA "" (STORAGE 10 512) The number "512" means that it has 512K set as the mailbox size, and 10 means that the mailbox is using 10K worth of space. The imap daemon gets both of those bits of information from the Maildir/maildirsize file. If you changed the quota in the database and need to update the maildirsize file, just send a quick email to the account. If your delivery agent is not updating the file, then it's not configured correctly (i.e. not configured to match what you are expecting it to do). -- Regards...

Third, it is accepted as being self-evident. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword _______________________________________________ Courier-imap mailing list Courier-imap@lists.sourceforge.net Unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/courier-imap
