There is a postfix quota patch that will allow you to do mysql quota support. http://www.oav.net/~kiwi/postfix/

The thing about maildrop is... that quota's aren't really done through mysql. Maildrop uses a flat file (maildirsize) in the user's home directory to keep track of quota levels.

Also with maildrop, you have to initially create the user's mail spool directory with "maildirmake" and then create the quota file with "maildirmake -q x" where x is the quota size.. I used a php script to fetch values from a mysql database and then create the directories with "maildirmake".

Postfix's "virtual" agent creates those spool dir's for you automagically.

Hi, I currentally run

PostFix + MySql + Virtual Users + Courier Imap(pop3d)

I want to inplant maildrop so it reads user quotas from the MySql users table..

Is there any how-twos on how this is done?
