We've a strange quota behavior on our dovecot servers.
It seems that it's somehow doubling the real used storage (or could
be something like twice the inbox size + size of other folders, hard
to know for sure).
It was initial setup with the maildir++ system. Now it's been
configured with dict and mysql table but the result is the same.
Dovecot version : 2.1.7 (from squeeze-backports). Maildir format is used
As example, let's use mail...@domain.com.
If I check in the quota table, I'll find :
- size : 697151354
- number of files : 1510
Now if I check the Maildir folder on the filesystem, I'll find :
- size : 347960000
- number of files : 824 (using find . -type f|grep -v dovecot|wc -l,
not 100% accurate)
Another mail box
Reported by dovecot : 503446986 1081
Filesystem : 248592000 598
Does anyone has an idea of what could be possibly wrong. We've
checked & double-checked everything and nothing seems to be wrong
(no dsync used).
What happens after quota resync? Does the quota change?
What happens to the "doveadm quota get" output after LMTP/LDA delivery
of a mail with a fixed-size, let's say one mail with 1 MB?
How does your setup look like? Mailbox+Director Proxy or only Mailboxes?
What is your doveconf -n output of mailbox (and possibly director)?

Hi Daniel,
Thanks for your answer
Here are some tests to show the problem. The test mailbox is initialy
empty. All described actions are done in a sequencial way (test mail
with an attachement of ~2Mo)

No dovecot director is used at the moment (it's planned). There's one
server handling incoming mails (postfix + LMTP), one for IMAP/POP
(dovecot) & one for email sending (postfix).
