Re: [courier-users] How maildrop averages the maildir file system

Hello Sam, hello All,

I was looking for a final answer for my problem and I saw the following
coincidence:

in nando maildir, there is just 14 mails with ":2,S" and the others 2960 wi=
th or
":2,T" or ":2,ST", or excluded emails in Maildir/Cur. In nando's maildir th=
ere
isn't a Trash folder, so the deleted mails keep in cur folder. I remember f=
rom
my past that I had to compile maildrop with trash-quota support, but my
maildrop today coming from Debian APT-GET "Courier-Maildrop".

Could these deleted mails keep out from maildrop quota average? How could I
discover if my binary maildrop has the trash quota support?

Thanks a lot,

Luiz

Yes, that uses the quota settings also.
