That makes sense.  Thanks.

So, a little more on quotas.  If I'm understanding a previous posting
correctly, to have per-user quotas, I have to return a quota field from
the database in the format specified on
http://wiki.dovecot.org/Quota/Dict.  If I omit "messages=...", then I
assume that it will only apply the storage size quota.

Is there a way to tell the LDA to ignore the quota but update the quota
usage when delivering?  And also to apply quotas to pop/imap.  My goal
is to have postfix reject mail for users who are over quota, but always
deliver once the mail gets to the storage server.  At worst, I can add
a certain amount to the quota in the query.
