You're right, I'm not. Right now all sorts of exotic quota ideas are being
bandied about the office: x number of messages sent/received in y time,
different numbers for different senders and recipients, and on and on. Any
of these ideas that gets turned into a requirement will need a custom
delivery instruction to go with it, if it's not already covered by programs
like Sam Varshavshik's deliverquota.
