Ah, it looks like this is by design. Great. http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Authentication/MultipleDatabases
It wasn't mentioned as a solution on http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Quota/Configuration#passwd-file so I missed it.

Hi Timo, et al,
I'm using Dovecot 2.2.2, with dict file based quota and a quota_rule in dovecot.conf. I have userdb configured like so:
userdb { driver = passwd-file args = /etc/dovecot/passwd-file } userdb { driver = passwd }
I get the behavior I want with a single line in the passwd-file for any users that I'd like to override the default quota. BUT, if I list the userdb sections in the reverse order, with the driver=passwd first, then the quotas in passwd-file are ignored.
I have a feeling I am counting on undocumented behavior that might change in the future. Or is this okay to depend on?
Thanks, Ken
