Actually, I once had a system where the request was "we do not send over quota notices, all mails have to arrive". Hence, deliver should have no quota - well, a very high quota actually -, but a quite strick IMAP quota.

So simply leaving everything in the INBOX defeats the quota?

Not directly.

Incoming mails were spooled to /var/mail/user. Upon login via IMAP or POP and when /var/mail/user changes those mails were slurped into ~user/<> by the imap/pop server process.

Ahh... so, this would only be a [potential] problem in the case of [a] user[s] that didn't login for a long time... and I guess you could even deal with that by some kind of nightly cron job...
