I'm sorry, but this happens if I do not use quota plugin for LDA. :(
My environment is:
-- OS: Linux 2.6.30 i686 Slackware 11.0.0
-- dovecot 1.2.6 (with 2 patchs: stat((null)) + istream-seekable)
-- user inbox(mbox) and homedir(with mbox) locate at NFS (OS: Linux
2.6.18.7 i686 Slackware 11.0.0)
-- NFS has file system group quota
Test user is over quoted:
---
Disk quotas for group #5751796 (gid 5751796):
Filesystem blocks quota limit
nfse:/export 23768* 10240 10240

dovecot -n

If I change only one string (disable LDA quota): "lda: mail_plugins:
quota", my inbox starts corrupt.
1. LDA with quota plugin log:
$ echo "123123123" | /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver -d koc

full)
from=<>, msgid=: rejected: Quota exceeded (mailbox for user is full)
msgid=: Return-Path missing, rejection reason: Quota exceeded (mailbox for

2. LDA without quota plugin:
$ echo "123123123" | /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver -d koc
---
mbox: data=~/:INBOX=/var/virtual/mail/I/I/koc:INDEX=MEMORY
fs: root=/var/virtual/home/I/I/koc, index=, control=,
inbox=/var/virtual/mail/I/I/koc
close(/var/virtual/mail/I/I/koc.lock) failed: Disk quota exceeded
from=<>, msgid=: saved mail to INBOX
---
My INBOX before delivery:
-rw------- 1 5751796 5751796 4087 2009-10-16 17:24 koc
after:
-rw------- 1 5751796 5751796 4096 2009-10-16 17:25 koc
(look at size, now it 8*512k blocks)
If INBOX is zero size, than deliver say same: "lock failed, saved mail to
INBOX", but INBOX size still zero. If INBOX is 1 byte size, than deliver
say same, but message writes to INBOX to full 512k block.

MTA log is: stat=ok3: saved mail to INBOX. Deliver not crash. I can make
strace if it helps.

I backport it to dovecot-1.2 and "stat((null))" fixed now! Thanx again, Timo!
