Sam,
The main point is performance. Qmail-pop3 uses less resources than
Courier-POP.
If we compare Courier-pop, Qmail-pop3 and Dovecot, Dovecot wins in
performance.

I implemented quotas in Courier long before anyone did anything
quota-related for maildirs. The quota code in Courier dates back to
1999.
I'm not familiar with this patch, or whether it even claims to be
interoperable with the Courier's quota implementation.
Just because it claims to implement some kind of a quota for maildirs
doesn't mean that whatever it does would do anything that Courier's
quota
logic would understand. This could be a completely different quota
implementation. Since the claim is that whatever it does, does not get
reflected in Courier's understanding of how big the maildir is, that's
probably it.
This is the patch that was popular back in the days of qmail/vpopmail :
"This patch adds maildirquota (Maildir++) support to qmail-pop3d and
qmail-local"
http://www.shupp.org/patches/qmail-maildir++.patch
Looks like bits and pieces of Courier code shoved into Qmail.
Have no idea whether this will work as intended, or may be the patch
wasn't applied properly. I don't really see the point. It's easier to
just use Courier's POP3 server. Why make life complicated?
