We get an infinite loop once quota is exceeded.
Having set up the dovecot quota as per https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/quota/
Here are the parameters I modified (my setup was working with no concern):
90-quota.conf
plugin {
quota = maildir:User quota
quota_rule = *:storage=100MB
# 10% of 1GB = 100MB
quota_rule2 = Trash:storage=+10%%
# 20% of 1GB = 200MB
quota_rule3 = Spam:storage=+20%%
quota_max_mail_size = 30M
# Quota messages incl. user is no longer over quota
quota_warning = storage=90%% quota-warning 95 %u %d
quota_warning2 = storage=80%% quota-warning 90 %u %d
quota_warning3 = -storage=100%% quota-warning below %u %d
#quota_exceeded_message = ERROR:422 - Mailbox full
}
service quota-warning {
executable = script /var/mail/quota-warning.sh
# use some unprivileged user for executing the quota warnings
unix_listener quota-warning {
user = mail
}
}
With a script, that I did make inoperant by commenting the lines, hence the error does not come from the script actions:
quota-warning.sh
#!/bin/sh
PERCENT=$1
USER=$2
DOMAIN=$3
#cat << EOF | /usr/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda -d $USER -o "plugin/quota=maildir:User quota:noenforcing"
#From: [email protected]
#Subject: quota warning
#Your mailbox is now $PERCENT% full.
#EOF
Here is what the output of journalctl -f -u postfix -u dovecot

And it keeps going the same way until I restart postfix & dovecot. It looks like the system geneates an email from postmaster to james, and since james's mailbox is full it keeps looping. Any clue on a parameter to fix this ?
Thanks in advance.
