I guess the right way to do it would be:

quota_rule = USERS:ignore
quota_rule2 = USERS.*:ignore

But since wildcards aren't supported here, someone needs to write the code.. It's also not very clear what should happen when a mailbox is renamed from "foo" to "USERS.foo". The quota should be decreased by the mailbox's size I guess..
