It doesn't.

Correct.  This is one of the ways to arrange to use deliverquota code to 
deliver new mail into the mailbox. 

The README files contains explicit instructions for setting it up: 

  Therefore, proceed as follows:
    * Copy deliverquota to some convenient location, say /usr/local/bin.
    * Configure  your  mail  server to use deliverquota. For example, if
      you  use Qmail and your maildirs are all located in $HOME/Maildir,
      replace   the   './Maildir/'  argument  to  qmail-start  with  the
      following: '| /usr/local/bin/deliverquota ./Maildir 1000000S'
      This  sets  a  one  million  byte  limit  on  all  Maildirs.  As I
      mentioned,  this  is  meaningless  if  login  access is available,
      because   the   individual   account  owner  can  create  his  own
      $HOME/.qmail  file,  and  ignore  deliverquota.  Note that in this
      case, you MUST use apostrophes on the qmail-start command line, in
      order to quote this as one argument.
