Hello....

I load quotas from users homefolders using postlogin like this:


-------------------------
#!/bin/sh

# Read users quota
if [ -f ~/quota ]; then
  export QUOTA=`cat ~/quota`
fi

# Start IMAP session
exec /usr/lib/dovecot/imap
-------------------------

User without a quota-file in their homedirs get a quota set in dovecot.conf.


Im using LDA. According to the wiki this should not work:

http://wiki.dovecot.org/Quota?highlight=quota :
This post-login trick unfortunately doesn't work with deliver 
<http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA>. If you need it, you're pretty much out of 
luck for now. v1.1 *quota* <http://wiki.dovecot.org/Quota/New> makes 
this possible.


According to my tests it does indeed work. What is not supposed to work?


Tobias
