Hi baby_moon,
A user's quota is 1M, and some mails are in its Inbox, and I was checked
its directory, the maildirsize file is there.
When I changed this user's quota to 3M, after a mail come in, the
quota's total number is same as before. Who knows how to solve this

When a message arrives and is delivered by vdelivermail,
the quotas are enforced. It also updates the maildirsize

Recompile. It's hard coded at compile time.

As of vpopmail-5.3.19 you update the .qmailadmin-limits
