Doesn't really help, as it is not computing the mailbox size from scratch. It is taking it from the existing maildirsize file. Ah! But then it's *delivering* to .Trash. OK, that's a twist that wasn't considered. The setting of maildir_quota_directory_regex is used only when Exim is computing the size of the mailbox by adding up the sizes of all the files. I guess it should also be consulted when Exim is actually delivering a message - but ... How is this happening? I thought that maildir deliveries always went into the cur directory? Oh, it's going into .Trash/cur? Aarrgghh!! What is the configuration of your transport? The maildir_quota_directory_regex is relative to "the maildir directory", which, it seems in your case is /var/mail/oversimplified.com/listmail/Maildir/.Trash/ which explains why it doesn't work as you expect; it is looking at a different directory level. Are there any maildir experts reading this who would like to comment?
