Hi i am not sure what are trying to goal
with domain quota, if you setup your accounts i.e with postfixadmin etc
then its up to the gui logic , stopping postmasters to setup more
accounts ( with quotas ) as you ( the superadmin ) want.
For everything else user quotas usally are enough
thinkable maybe calculation of all users quotas in dict from one domain
in a sql postfix query table to stop deliver in more mail, but i dont
think this makes real sense
sorry if i missunderstand your question..
