How does it define "too old"???
As in, what if I set a 10Mb limit on my users, then get some new
drives, and upgrade the limit in the database to 100Mb. How then does
dovecot 'upgrade' the users quota's? How would someone force an
upgade? Delete all the maildirsize files (when dovecot creates them
properly)?
