Yeah, it's a bit confusing to have both IMAP and UNIX UIDs referred to
as only UIDs. So the 993 above means the message's IMAP UID.

Note that above it's trying to connect
to /usr/local/scripts/quota-warning2, which is a completely different
directory. So your quota_warning setting shouldn't have the executable
path, but only "quota-warning".
