Maybe this is not the original problem, but here is some way to reproduce a similar behaviour. ##################### # Close Thunderbird # ##################### ################# # Clear Mailbox # ################# rm -rf /mail/dovecot/example.org/user1 sleep 1 doveadm quota recalc -u [email protected] ############### # Check quota # ############### # doveadm quota get -u [email protected] Quota name Type Value Limit % User quota STORAGE 0 - 0 User quota MESSAGE 0 - 0 ################ # Deliver mail # ################ { cat <<EOF LHLO localhost MAIL FROM:<[email protected]> RCPT TO:<[email protected]> DATA EOF dd if=/dev/zero count=1 bs=1M | base64 cat <<EOF . QUIT EOF } | nc localhost 19024 ############### # Check quota # ############### # doveadm quota get -u [email protected] Quota name Type Value Limit % User quota STORAGE 1383 - 0 User quota MESSAGE 1 - 0 ####################### # Check mdbox storage # ####################### du -sk /mail/dovecot/example.org/user1 1432 /mail/dovecot/example.org/user1 ##################### # Move Email around # ##################### Move Email two times between Trash and INBOX (4 moves in total). There is still only one physical message, just moved it around a bit. ##################### # Check quota again # ##################### # doveadm quota get -u [email protected] Quota name Type Value Limit % User quota STORAGE 6918 - 0 User quota MESSAGE 5 - 0 Quota now displays 5 messages and 6 MB, even though there is only one message with 1.5 MB. ####################### # Check mdbox storage # ####################### # du -sk /mail/dovecot/example.org/user1 1472 /mail/dovecot/example.org/user1 The actual disk usage did not increase, but the "usage value" did increase with every move operation. As long as the client has its MUA open, the usage is incorrectly displayed (and accounted), and does not correspond with actual disk usage. ##################### # Close Thunderbird # ##################### The mailboxes get expunged. ##################### # Check quota again # ##################### # doveadm quota get -u [email protected] Quota name Type Value Limit % User quota STORAGE 1383 - 0 User quota MESSAGE 1 - 0 Usage value and message count is correct again, once thunderbird is closed. ####################### # Check mdbox storage # ####################### # du -sk /mail/dovecot/example.org/user1 1472 /mail/dovecot/example.org/user1 The actual disk usage did not change, which is OK. > > In the tests does it make difference if you bypass director? No. The behaviour is the same if I access the mailbox directly. Regards, Daniel
