This is something Timo hacked up for me a few years ago and I realised

The following patches will limit maildir folders to 4000 messages on
Dovecot 2.0.* and 2.1.*
The Specfile patch is against the Cityfan Redhat EL5 SRPM but is
likely to work on most build platforms
Changing the message limit requires a recompile. It's brutal and ugly
but it prevents users overloading FSes that can't cope with huge
numbers of files (EG: GFS2)
Hi, sorry for the dumb question, but isn't there already in Dovecot a
way to limit the number of messages?
Something like:
quota_rule = *:messages=4000

Or it's something different?
