Since we upgraded last year to Solaris 10 with zfs filesystems on our
Sparc server still using a similar setup with separate filesystems for
home directories and inboxes we have no working quota plugin anymore.
Currently we use dovecot 2.0.13.
Are there any plans or whishes to get the filesystem quota code
working again under zfs and Solaris?
How are you setting up the zfs quotas? The original zfs
implementation didn't have user quotas. You could only
add quotas to individual file systems as a whole. They apparently
added it into the source base in 2009:

but I'm not sure when/if it made it to production.
My sol10u8 * (10/09) has it in the man page, but I know some things
in the man page isn't in s10 (like sharesmb), so, as they say, ymmv.
The current doc for user quotas are here:

If you don't want to use the filesystem quotas, you have to change
your rules/configuration to match what dovecot has. See
doc/wiki/Quota.Configuration.txt. Hope this helps.
