When a message arrives and is delivered by vdelivermail, the quotas are enforced. It also updates the maildirsize file (and uses the maildir++ naming conventions) thereby updating the maildir++ quota usage that is shared amongst all maildir++ compatible software.
>From what I understand of maildir++, all the programs like the POP, IMAP, and any maildir++ compatable software should maintain the maildirsize file(s) for each folder, including INBOX, so the usage should remain the same when moving messages between folders. The usage should be restored when deleting a message. So note that vpopmail uses maildir++ quota code (ported by Bill from courier's implementation). I just extended Bill's port to include domain support in addition to user support and made the code available in the libvpopmail.a library so it can be shared. The name clashes with courier were taken care of so you can still link with the courier code. So there shouldn't be any issues and should work well with other software.
