Requirements
- Dovecot 1.2.x
Steps
- Replace file based quota by quotadict in /etc/dovecot.conf:
| File: /etc/dovecot.conf |
plugin {
#quota = maildir # <- Comment this line.
quota = dict:user::proxy::quotadict # <- Add this line.
# ... SKIP OTHER CONFIG HERE ...
}
|
- Add quotadict in dict section in /etc/dovecot.conf:
| File: /etc/dovecot.conf |
dict {
quotadict = mysql:/etc/dovecot-realtime-quota.conf # <- Add this line.
# ... SKIP OTHER CONFIG HERE ...
}
|
- [For OpenLDAP backend] Create MySQL tables realtime_quota in database iredadmin used to store realtime quota info. (Of course you can use other database instead of iredadmin.)
| Terminal: |
$ mysql -uroot -p iredadmin
mysql> CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS realtime_quota (
`username` VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
`bytes` BIGINT(20) NOT NULL DEFAULT 0,
`messages` BIGINT(20) NOT NULL DEFAULT 0,
PRIMARY KEY (`username`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;
|
- [For MySQL backend] If you're using iRedMail-0.6.1 or order version, you can simply add two columns in table vmail.mailbox:
| Terminal: |
$ mysql -uroot -p vmail mysql> ALTER TABLE mailbox ADD COLUMN `bytes` BIGINT(20) NOT NULL DEFAULT 0; mysql> ALTER TABLE mailbox ADD COLUMN `messages` BIGINT(20) NOT NULL DEFAULT 0; |
- Create file /etc/dovecot-realtime-quota.conf (Note: Change dbname, table if you're using MySQL backend):
| File: /etc/dovecot-realtime-quota.conf |
connect = host=localhost dbname=iredadmin user=root password=passwd
map {
pattern = priv/quota/storage
table = realtime_quota
username_field = username
value_field = currentbytes
}
map {
pattern = priv/quota/messages
table = realtime_quota
username_field = username
value_field = currentmessages
}
|
- Restart dovecot and it should work as expected now.
