I can't reproduce this, it's never added to quota when delivering to
Spam. Try to reproduce with a simpler setup.

It should happen only when the message is actually saved somewhere (you
sure there's not a copy saved to some archive/something?)

Try:

1) removing the sieve_* settings

2) Use a simple Sieve script for a test user:

require "fileinto";
fileinto "Spam";
stop;

3) Run from command line:

doveadm quota get -u username
echo "Hello world" | /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda -d username
doveadm quota get -u username

With these and latest v2.0 from hg (but I don't remember any related
fixes for a long time) the quota never increased.
