Hi
I'am using dovecot with quota_rule stored in mysql user table, and quota usage stored in mysql dict
Quota
dict { quotadict = mysql:/usr/local/etc/dovecot-quota.conf }
plugin { quota = dict:user::proxy::quotadict quota_rule2 = Trash:storage=10%% quota_rule3 = Sent:ignore
#quota_rule = *:storage=10M} ###################################
Everything works as expected, but I have some inconveniences for domains with large number of mailboxes. Allocating and maintain quota to every account it's a hard job. I just want to implement some flexibility for this situations (ex the first enforcement to be the user quota and the second to be the domain quota). Is there a way to implement such thing in dovecot and what are the adjustments that I need to do.
Regards
Alex

Why don't you implement domain quota in terms of filesystem quota? So basically, every domain has differend user, UID and GID. You use the usual quota tools to enforce soft/hard limits, enforcement period etc. based on user or group. And you leave mailbox quota handled by dovecot.

You can create domain quota with dict.
quota2 = dict:<quota root name>:<user name>:<dictionary URI>
Just set "user name" to %d so it expands to domain. The main problem with this is that there's no easy way to recalculate the domain quota if you ever need to do so.
