Sorry, you're right on that.
Why isn't it enough to keep the current quota system, and just update
all

As you can see, the deferring updates is not yet implemented. The performance

Two thoughts on quotas.
You're going to have to deal in sub-megabyte numbers, since the size
of most messages are measured in KB. Maybe you could track the quota
in kbytes, rounding up/down as necessary?
All programs that deal

Some of you may be aware I'm working on changes and additions to the quota
system in vpopmail.
Part of the aim of the updated system is to provide future-proofing against the
problems we're
having now, where quota sizes and usage counts are
I personally don't require it. It also seems to me with disk space
costing what it does, and compression being readily available (via
plugins, ZFS, or what have you) it shouldn't really be an issue.
Are there any applications that display the actual quota amount that do

My question is this; would anyone ever require a quota below a megabyte,
or, would any application
ever really need to know about specific usage counts below a megabyte?
Not us, however current applications assume the format is in bytes (for
example the maildirsize file) so calucalations will
i don't really see 16 exabyte mailboxes in near future. But when the
time comes for those, there should be 128bit processors and operating
systems, so replacing the 64bit unsigned int with a 128bit one at that
point should not be a too great deal. Maybe future proof by defining the

When calculating usage, I'm thinking about making the smallest
