The current values of the quota is located in the maildirsize file in 
each user mailbox directory.
I can do a script to parse every maildirsize file but I don't understand 
the format of this file.
I read in the documentation that the first line is the maximum storage 
limit in bytes, but I don't know what the other lines means.
Here is an example of a maildirsize file:

1024000000S
24140481 824
2580 1
655 1
975 1
975 1
975 1
975 1
1434 1
610 1
3577 1
