Kinda of along these lines, I've implemented the use of a FORM to
automatically log users into qmailadmin from IMP.  I've noticed on my
mailbox, with 50MB in it, the main_menu takes a couple seconds to load..
I think it's because of the 'du'.

I hate re-inventing the wheel, so I HAVE to ask why is there a 'du' for
doing quotas, when that should already exist in maildirsize?

I have my own hack to qmailadmin that I would like to see in the
'release' but I haven't heard any interest in it, so I haven't cleaned
anything up.   Should I cleanup, and add ifdefs to my 'Service Level'
stuff?  It current form only works with MySQL, and vpopmail also has to
be modified.

Specific to QmailAdmin I'd like to speed up the quota stuff, by throwing
in an 'if exist(maildirsize) - read it else du the dir. ;)

Or has anyone else planned on doing that?  I can understand if nobody
else has looked at it. Normally, you just wait for the login to
'complete' But my FORM submit opens qmailadmin in an existing frame, and
there isn't anything to show the user something is happening - so it
initially looks like the link does nothing, if you have a large Maildir.
