This is a mix of old and new style user_attrs format. That might be
causing the problem. Use instead:

user_attrs = homeDirectory=home,quota=quota=maildir:storage

It doesn't matter, because it's overridden by the quota setting returned
by userdb.

If you can't seem to get it work, set auth_debug=yes and look at what
you see in the logs. You should see something like:

auth(default): master out: USER  1       tss    uid=1000 gid=1000 home=/home/tss   quota=maildir:storage=102400

Make sure the quota setting looks correct in there.
