Subject:[maildropl] Maildrop miscalculates maildirsizeActions...

Hello,

I am setting up a server with Postfix + Courier-Imap/Pop3 + Mysql + Maildrop on FreeBSD 4.9. Everything works fine, except Maildrop's updating of the maildirsize file. Example: I run maildirmake -q 999999999999999S /path/to/maildir. (I'm specifying the 999999999999999S quota in the Mysql database, no problem there) Then cat /path/to/maildir/maildirsize gives me:

999999999999999S 14306001 1822

Whis is fine. Doing a du -s on the directory gives me approximately that amount.

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.

Thank you,

Arie
