Subject:[courier-users] quota and MYSQL_QUOTA_FIELD confusionActions...

Hi. I'm a little confused when it comes to the use of quota. The doc says that the quota must me installed to the maildir by using maildirmake -q nnnnS ./Maildir.

1. What's the ending "S"? I couldn't find anything about it in the man-pages. 2. In my authmysqlrc I refer to a field MYSQL_QUOTA_FIELD. What is it used for? Will the value in this field override the one set with maildirmake -q ? By reading the comments in autmysqlrc it looks like this is the value for the quota. This seem redundant with setting the value with maildirmake -q, but I never got quota working (i.e. the imap client doesn't report any) without running maildirmake -q. 3. Must the value in MYSQL_QUOTA_FIELD end with the "S" too? 4. In the maildirmake(1) man-page I find: -q quota install a quota on the maildir. See "Maildir Quotas", below. .. but the string Maildir Quotas isn't mentioend anywhere else in the man-page. 5. Once the maildir is up and running with quota. Is it possible to change it by chaning the value in MYSQL_QUOTA_FIELD only? Or do I have to rerun maildirmake -q, or do I have to do both?

My setup is postfix + maildrop 1.8 + courier-imap 4 + courier-authlib 0-55 on FreeBSD. No other programs are storing messages to the maildirs but maildrop. No other programs but courier-imap is used moving messages betwwen imap-folders.

I would really appreciate any kind of guidance. An URL would be very nice.
