I have a testing VM running Ubuntu with postfix, dovecot and a couple of users set up using Roundcube to send mail locally via SMTP.
If I set the Dovecot quota of User A to 20K and then send about 18K of mail to them from User B, this puts them at 90% of their quota. I can see this with doveadm quota get -u usera (and I see Roundcube shows this in its UI in fact).
But they do not get a notification that they are approaching their quota. I have also put a logging line in the notification script, but see that no log is written.
If I then send another email from User B to put User A over quota, User B doesn't get a notice of that, nor does User A. But I would expect them to. (EDIT: as per @anx comment, this isn't necessarily the correct expectation though)
When User A replies to User B when they are over quota, they get a message message from Roundcube to saying the operation can't be done as there is no free disk space. But the mail is sent OK.
How can I get quotas to message their status properly?
My userdb file has this entry in it:
