If I remember right, this is a known issue, where Mail.app won't report the quota when QUOTAROOT is "". We've found no fix for it here as it seems to be a Mail.app issue.

Hi everyone.
I can't get mail.app to report back correct quota information using mail.app and dovecot (though it works with courier-imap).
I am looking at migrating away from courier-imap to dovecot but this issue is something I need to have resolved <somehow>.
Thunderbird is fine and reports back good info on either connection.
I am off to read RFCs (can't I just read the sendmail book again? Might be easier...) to see what should really be done.
