I got it working:
I changend this line in dovecot.conf from 1G to 10G:

Code:

quota_rule = *:bytes=10G

Now the maximum quota in webinterface is 2048MB... any way to increase it?

You must change type of field "quota" in database table mail_users, to bigint(10). After this change maximum quota is more bigger as 2048MB.

sorry for my bad english

That's a problem, because making changes to the ispcp database can interfere in the normal functioning of ispcp after upgrades and that stuff.
Could you open a ticket asking for this change? Altough ispcp is not able to use mail quotas with courier, it'll be a future problem if it ever works.
Another option would be to use the MB as the minimum unit for the quota (so the limit would be 2000GB instead of 2GB), for dovecot it's no problem, even on the gui patch I made, we are doing the conversion from MB to Bytes.
