<p><strong>quota</strong> generates a report listing quota roots, giving their limits and
usage.</p>
<p>If the <strong>-f</strong> option is specified, <strong>quota</strong> first fixes any
inconsistencies in the quota subsystem, such as mailboxes with the wrong
quota root or quota roots with the wrong quota usage reported.</p>
<p>If an optional <em>domain</em> is specified with the <strong>-d</strong> option, the quota
listing (and any inconsistency fixing) is performed only in that domain
rather than all mailboxes.</p>
<p>If one or more <em>mailbox-spec</em> arguments are specified, these are interpreted
as mailbox prefixes, and the quota listing (and inconsistency fixing) is
limited to quota roots with names that start with one of the given prefixes.
If the <strong>-u</strong> is provided, <em>mailbox-spec</em> arguments are instead interpreted
as userids, and the quota listing (and inconsistency fixing) is limited to
quota roots for only the specified users.</p>
<div class="admonition warning">
<p class="admonition-title">Warning</p>
<p>Running <strong>quota</strong> with both the <strong>-f</strong> option and <em>mailbox-spec</em>
