dovecot - Feb 2008 - Update from 1.0.10 -> 1.1rc1: Odd "quota exceeded" output

I'm not sure if "Warning: Growing pool 'Environment' with:
4096"
should be in that message :)

What does it mean, anyway?

It means you've compiled dovecot with --enable-debug. It's mainly useful
for developers and it gives these kind of "useless" warnings.

In this case it might be better to increase the pool's initial size so
it doesn't have to be grown. But since the environment pool is large
enough for other processes it just means delivering is wasting a lot of
space for adding environment variables.

Yes, true.

Argh. I will remove it.
