this is what I did and submitted a while ago (see http://www.interazioni.it/qmail/#qmailadmin), but it was not approved because this idea was considered probably too simple, and the "disastrous" domain level quota was instead implemented. The domain quota was calculated over the postmaster's quota, and I called all this "polled quota".

That's why I was thinking it would be good to have a domain quota-like setting that qmailadmin understands, but that does not apply to the delivery agent.
Keeping my above explanation in mind, assume that it worked as follows:
-user signs up for a "domain account" that includes 20 accounts and a total "quota" of 200MB.
-user logs into qmailadmin to setup the accounts. A total is shown at the top of the user-creation page that shows how much of that 200MB is left to be "given" to each user.
-user sets up [EMAIL PROTECTED] with 10MB quota
-user goes to user-creation page and the total shown at the top says "190MB left"
-user creates [EMAIL PROTECTED], and since she handles sales and customer inquiries, he gives jane a 50MB quota
-rinse and repeat until all users are created. If there's quota left over, user can assign the extra space to any existing users or keep it around for future use
Does that sound like a good idea?
