mailbox quota again and again

Hi there,
when using the standard quota script (quota.rc.master) I'm getting in my logs:

Code:

Command output: ==================== QUOTA:     10000000000 INBOXSIZE: web8_admin Bouncing (inbox already full!) )

Suffice to say, no mails are delivered like that.
I guess INBOXSIZE should be a number and not the username. So I believe something is wrongly parsed there.

I'm not that fluent in procmail language so if someone could maybe comment the quota.rc.master file?

Anyway I'm posting my quota.rc which I have always used and which is working fine (for me).

Code:

#!/bin/bash

QUOTA=10000000000 #10GB

GROUP_QUOTA_ENABLED=0
quota -wg | grep -q ": none" || GROUP_QUOTA_ENABLED=1
if [ $GROUP_QUOTA_ENABLED -eq 1 ]; then
        FS_GROUP_QUOTA=`quota -wg | tail -1 | awk '{print $3}'`*1024
        FS_GROUP_QUOTA=$(($FS_GROUP_QUOTA))
        FS_GROUP_QUOTA_USED=`quota -wg | tail -1 | awk '{print $2}' | sed -n 's/
^\([0-9]*\).*$/\1/g p'`*1024
        FS_GROUP_QUOTA_USED=$(($FS_GROUP_QUOTA_USED))
        FS_GROUP_QUOTA_FREE=$(($FS_GROUP_QUOTA-$FS_GROUP_QUOTA_USED))
else
        FS_GROUP_QUOTA=0
fi

USER_QUOTA_ENABLED=0
quota -wu | grep -q ": none" || USER_QUOTA_ENABLED=1
if [ $USER_QUOTA_ENABLED -eq 1 ]; then
        FS_USER_QUOTA=`quota -wu | tail -1 | awk '{print $3}'`*1024
        FS_USER_QUOTA=$(($FS_USER_QUOTA))
        FS_USER_QUOTA_USED=`quota -wu | tail -1 | awk '{print $2}' | sed -n 's/^
\([0-9]*\).*$/\1/g p'`*1024
        FS_USER_QUOTA_USED=$(($FS_USER_QUOTA_USED))
        FS_USER_QUOTA_FREE=$(($FS_USER_QUOTA-$FS_USER_QUOTA_USED))
else
        FS_USER_QUOTA=0
fi

if [ $FS_USER_QUOTA == 0 ]; then
        if [ $FS_GROUP_QUOTA != 0 ]; then
        # we have unlimtied user filesystem quota but the group is limited
                if [ $FS_GROUP_QUOTA_FREE -lt $QUOTA ]; then
                        QUOTA=$FS_GROUP_QUOTA_FREE
                else
                        QUOTA=$QUOTA
                fi
        else
        # unlimited user and group quota
                QUOTA=$QUOTA
        fi
else
        # both quotas are enabled
        # the minimum of user and group quotas counts
        if [ $FS_GROUP_QUOTA != 0 ]; then
                if [ $FS_USER_QUOTA_FREE -lt $FS_GROUP_QUOTA_FREE ]; then
                        QUOTA=$FS_USER_QUOTA_FREE
                else
                        QUOTA=$FS_GROUP_QUOTA_FREE
                fi
        # user quota is enabled and group quota is disabled
        else
                if [ $FS_USER_QUOTA_FREE -gt 0 ]; then
                        QUOTA=$FS_USER_QUOTA_FREE
                else
                        QUOTA=0
                fi
        fi
fi

echo $QUOTA

EDIT Actually, I am calling the above code from quota.rc like so:

Code:

# quota.rc by Stuart Clark/Falko Timme
#
# If mailbox size exceeds QUOTA, send reply email
# using $PMDIR/bounce-exceed-quota.txt
##
# If incoming message size exceeds available storage
# space (user/group filesystem quota) then
# send reply email using bounce-exceed-quota.txt
#
#LOGFILE="/tmp/procmail.quota.$LOGNAME.log"
#VERBOSE=YES
DROPPRIVS=YES

## using repquota will not work because normal users must not use it
PATH="/usr/bin:$PATH:/usr/local/bin"
SHELL=/bin/sh
EMAIL=`formail -zxTo:`

QUOTA=`iipmailquotacheck.sh`
:0
* > ${QUOTA}
{
        LOG="*** The disk space of this user or domain has been exceeded. Please
 try again at a later time. ***"
        EXITCODE=69
        HOST
}
#end

 

I'm using Maildir

 

Yeah I think I remember now ;-)

Nevertheless, one could simply disable this, since the system should know whether to use mailboxes or maildirs (set in Management -> Server Settings)

Also, I used my custom solution because I found the standard message that the user is over quota is not understood by the average user to whom mail might be returned.
