Unfortunately I do not have any experience with quota.

I think that this scenario is like a situation where an external program (or a
MTA) creates files in the maildir structure without using Dovecot API interface.

I think that Dovecot sees the directory change and updates the quota data, but
it's just a guess.



Ciao,
