Yes, of course ;) my mistake!

I see... You are right. Placing this file in the home dir gives results.

But then, the mysql/ldap/pgsql interfaces all have authinfo->quota,
which is obtained and passed on to courier-imap; what is the use for
this parameter then? Or is it simply discarded? 

Does this mean I sould not go to the trouble of obtaining the quota from
the database but rather trust the delivery agent with placing the
correct quota in "maildirsize"?
