I wrote a filesystem quota plugin for use with dovecot-0.99.x some
time ago.
It's been tested with both Solaris and FreeBSD, and is currently used
on a production Solaris server with 20k users for exactly the purpose
you describe - SquirrelMail quota display.
If anyone's interested in looking at the code with an eye to
extending OS support or accelerating conversion to the 1.0-alpha
codebase, let me know and I'll get around to making it available
somewhere.
On the other hand, Timo made some noises about committing something
similar to CVS, so it may be worth waiting.
