# doveadm quota get -u USERNAME
Quota name Type    Value   Limit         %

The user has an EMPTY mailbox with 3 folders (when connecting via IMAP)

But looking in $HOME, I'm seeing:
# du -sh .
1.6G.

The user cannot receive mail:

This was probably fixed in http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.2/rev/1886e0616ab5
(and cosmetically in
http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.2/rev/56dca338f46b). I can not say for sure
though, since your report is lacking some details.
For future refrence, please read http://www.dovecot.org/bugreport.html
carefully.
