Hi,
I like the quota count+clone configuration. However, I'm wondering if
the cloning process could batch its updates into chunks, or spread them
out over time?
The clone updates happen whenever the quota is updated, typically this
is fine, but when a tsunami of spam comes resulting in delivery

Looks like my virtual_mailbox_domains setting in postfix was not doing
the proper lookup, so it thought my domain was local. I've fixed that,
so this is no longer an issue.
I've got dovecot vacataion auto-responses working via sieve, but when
the responses are sent, they are sent as if they are to be locally
delivered, which causes them to bounce for domains that I am not local
for. How can I get dovecot's sieve vacation response to check the domain
is local or not?

When a user makes a folder called 'x.y' it actually creates a folder
called 'x' with a folder called 'y' inside, rather than a folder called
'x.y'. I'm guessing this has to do with an internal folder separator

I'm looking at scripting a mechanism to delete a mailbox, which is easy
with 'doveadm mailbox delete' -- however it gets complicated when there
are children of arbitrary depth, for example, I may have this:
restored.daily1.INBOX
restored.daily1.Sent
restored.daily1.Mystuff
restored.daily1.Mystuff
When a user renames their username, I am using dsync to copy their mail
over to the new username's mail location[0].
Some of the dsyncs are failing with errors that I dont know how to work
with, for example:
dsync(): Error: Trying to open a non-listed mailbox with
guid=41fcd40303c8a64e4323
I really like the feature where you can define quota rules with percents
which trigger off of the default values[0] (so you can set the Trash to
allow for 10% more of the user's quota for example).
What I would really love in dovecot would be for the ability to
configure a quota rule for dovecot
