imho, dovecot 1.00 RC2 has two bugs at the maildir quota implementation
1. Incorrect calculation of used storage and count of messages
When calculating, dovecot counts "." and ".." directory
entries. So, if
there are no subdirs and messages in maildir,
maildirsize still shows 4 messages and some used storage.
My workaround is

2. Under some condition maildirsize contains invalid data
Consider a such situation
1. User begins pop3 session
2. dovecot calls this sequence of procedures
maildir_quota_transaction_begin -> maildirquota_refresh ->
maildirsize_read
While reading maildirsize's data, may be situation when mailbox size must be
recalculated (maildirsize greater 5120,
quotas was changed...). In this case dovecot closes maildirsize's file
descriptor (root->fd) and assigns it "-1".
After that code calls maildirsize_recalculate -> maildirsize_write
So maildirsize is rewritten and contains valid data. BUT file descriptor
(root->fd) still contains "-1"
3. User retrieves and deletes some messages, then quits. So maildirsize must
be updated.
4. Code calls maildir_quota_transaction_commit, but root->fd equals
"-1", so
maildirsize_update doesn't calls and maildirsize contains incorrect
(obsolete) data
My workaround is

when
maildir_quota_transaction_commit is called, root->fd contains valid file
descriptor.
