I think there is an error in the
imaplib.IMAP4.getquotaroot method available in Python
2.3.3 (as actually available in Debian GNU/Linux).
In line 446 of file "imaplib.py", we can find :

  typ, dat = self._simple_command('GETQUOTA', mailbox)

Instead and according to RFCs, I think we should have :

  typ, dat = self._simple_command('GETQUOTAROOT', mailbox)


Using Netscape Messaging Server , the first version
replies with a "Permission denied" error (while logged
in as a common user) ; the second version works correctly :

  >>> cn.getquotaroot('INBOX')
  ('OK', [['INBOX user/tflorac'], ['user/tflorac
(STORAGE 981 51200)']])


Thanks for your work,

  Thierry

You are right - it looks as though the getquotaroot code was
copied from the
getquota code above it without being modified properly. Will
fix. Thanks!
