I tried to disable dotlocks and enable "count" with vsizes.
If you enable "quota_vsizes = yes" then this setting is stored in the
index files? You cannot turn it off again without deleting
dovecot.index?
So if I go back to dotlocks I'm basically breaking everything because
dotlocks does not work with vsize?
