Josh,

  I'd be interested in at least looking at it.  Currently I'm using 
procmail for local delivery and its Quota handling is kludgey at best.
I'd really like to get something working within MD.  Since the method 
Jan uses calls the perl module for Quota directly, I don't think setting 
setuid on the quota application will make any difference (although I 
haven't looked at the Quota module code either)

Thanks,
