It's seems I'm always a version before the cool feature :P, it's the
pain of using debian Stable ...

I sent a 5M mail to myself, there's the mail in inbox and the copy to
sent (amounting 10M), I connected to the server and manually removed
the mail (rm file).
After that sending a new mail updates the quota, but it doesn't recalculate it.
I only see:
UPDATE quota_dovecot SET bytes=bytes+631,messages=messages+1 WHERE
username = 'test at testing.com'
After deleting the entry for test at testing.com from the database, the
quota gets properly recalculated.
The problem is that I rely on db quota for some accounting scritpts,
and the users might not enter to their webmail or download the mail
for days.
How could I trigger this quota recalculation?
.- Maybe the most practical would be to have a crontab to update the
real values from time to time, at least until 2.0 is not available in
our environment...
.- Any other solution?
