After a few messages arrive, cat /path/to/maildir/maildirsize gives me:

999999999999999S 46952596785873 1822 7333 1 2438 1 2333 1

How did we get from 14306001 to 46952596785873 after just 12104 bytes? The problem is that it's making my quotas useless.

Anybody has run into a similar situation? Any pointers will be greatly appreciated.

Try the development build of maildrop.

Hi Sam, thanks for responding. I upgraded to version 1.6.3.20040608 and are still getting large maildir sizes.

Any ideas?

You're probably overflowing a variable somewhere. Why are you setting the quota so high anyway? Do you actually have a disk larger than ~909TB (what you have the quota set to)? If you're just testing quota calculations while avoiding actually going over quota, why not just set the quota to something slightly larger than your disk size?
