[Dovecot] 1.2.4 Maildir Quota Issues

Has anybody noticed this behavior when using maildir quota with Version 
1.2.4:
# 1.2.4: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
# OS: Linux 2.6.26-2-686-bigmem i686 Debian 5.0.3 xfs


My default configurations quota configurations:
plugin:
  quota: maildir:User quota
  quota_rule: *:storage=2G

Customized Use Configurations at the Mysql level:
user_query = SELECT 5000 AS uid,5000 AS gid,'/vmail/%d/%n' as home, \
            concat('*:storage= ', virtual_users.quota_kb) AS 
quota_rule         \
            from virtual_users LEFT JOIN virtual_domains ON 
virtual_users.domain_id=virtual_domains.id \
            where virtual_users.user='%n'  and virtual_domains.name='%d'

When I change quota at the SQL level (per user), that quota becomes 
active once Dovecot is restarted. Until then it keeps the previous quota 
assigned. I do not remember seeing this behavior in previous versions 
--quota was active  after  sql changes.


M.A.
