The Courier-IMAP server has maildirquota feature which is not compatible
with Exim MTA. The easier way is to make a workaround for Courier than
implement maildirsize file for Exim. This patch provides a new option to
/etc/courier/authldaprc file, i.e.:

NO_MAILDIRSIZE		1

This causes the Courier ignores maildirsize option and recalculate the
quota all the time.

The patch was sent to courier-users and is not applied to main source yet.

I have recently taken over maintenance of the courier packages.  I apologize
that nobody responded to this bug report.  Can you confirm if this is still a
problem with the current version of courier-base (1.5.1-3)?
