Hi consultant,

 

We had configured postfix + mysql + dovecot, where we created quota table in mysql database restricting the quota size by defining the size in the table. The patch (postfix + vda ) which was applied to achieve this was taken from http://www.linuxmail.info/post…..-packages/ I followed the steps which was available over there and did changes respect to mysql database.

 

Whenever we allocate quota size for an user,  maildirsize file is not getting created in the virtual mailbox folder. But once the user reaches / exceeds his quota limit, the mails are getting bounced. But we are not able to get any warning message either to the user or to the administrator. I tried to follow the steps provided in the article http://linux.justinhartman.com…..sing_MySQL to integrate with mysql. But as the perl script provided in that file is checking the maildirsize file for the quota allocated, we were not able to generate the warn message as the said file is not there in the Maildirectory.

Need your expertise to address this issue.

Please add the line below to /etc/postfix/main.cf to send out the warning message.

virtual_overquota_bounce = yes
